Settings, Themes, and Layout
MojoPad believes in options. Settings (⌘,, or the ⚙ toolbar button) is
organized into sections — pick one in the sidebar:
- Theme — nine of them: Parchment, Daylight, Sepia, and Voodoo in the light;
Voodoo Dark, Midnight, Graphite, Forest, and Sage after dark. The two Voodoos are the
heirlooms of the set — flat, native looks in honor of a certain beloved ancestor:
silver toolbar, plain white page, honest Mac-blue links, system font throughout.
Voodoo Dark is exactly how the ancestor looks on a dark-mode Mac — near-black chrome
around a stubbornly white page. Pair them with Match system appearance and the family
resemblance follows the sun. Also under View ▸ Theme. Turn on Match system
appearance and MojoPad follows macOS instead — pick one theme for day and one for
night, and they trade places when your Mac does. Choosing a theme by hand switches
back to manual.
- Page Layout — Classic (full bleed), Inset (a soft frame), or Floating
(your page as a card). Also under View ▸ Page Layout.
- Interface — overall chrome size (Compact / Comfortable / Roomy) and
Page Zoom (90–150%), both also in the View menu.
- Links — whether wiki links open in place or in a new tab (
⌘-click
does the opposite, either way).
- Editing — default font and text size for your writing; spell checking;
Markdown-aware paste; your external text and image editors.
- Security — the encrypted-content re-lock timer. See Encryption and Privacy.
- Web Clipper — the bookmarklet. See Page Links Everywhere.
- New Documents — whether WikiWords highlight by default.
- Locale & Dates — time zone, daily-note name format (with a live
preview), date display, 12/24-hour clock. See Daily Notes.
- AI — chat model and embedding model. See Local AI.
Settings apply live — no restarts, no Apply buttons. (The Settings window wears
your theme too, and switches the moment you pick a new one.)
Focus Mode
View ▸ Focus Mode (⇧⌘F) hides everything — toolbar, page list,
palettes, status bar — leaving just your page, centered and quiet. Press Esc
(or ⇧⌘F again) and the workshop reappears exactly as you left it.
