Manage Display Preferences

Display preferences live in local app settings unless a setting is intentionally stored in the note or vault.

Theme

Choose Light, Dark, or System in Settings. System follows the operating system appearance at runtime.

You can also switch theme mode from the command palette.

Note Width

Set the default rich-editor width in Settings:

• Normal for focused writing.
• Wide for tables, diagrams, dense notes, and generated documents.

An individual note can override the default width from the editor toolbar. That override is stored as _width in the note frontmatter.

Sidebar Labels

Tolaria can pluralize type names in the sidebar. Turn this off in Settings if your type names should be shown exactly as written, or use _sidebar_label on a type document for an explicit label.

Vault Content

Settings also control whether Gitignored files and non-Markdown file categories are visible in the app. Use these controls to keep generated or local-only files out of regular note workflows.
