Mentions ​

Mentions are links to components and boards within your Arcweave project. You can insert mentions while typing in the following fields:

In the workspace, mentions appear as orange text.

ℹ️ Mentions are not visually styled in Play Mode.; they appear as regular text.

Benefits of mentions ​

Mentions offer several advantages that improve project navigation and consistency:

  • Quick navigation: Clicking on a mention instantly opens the referenced component or board.
  • Auto-updating: If the referenced item is renamed, all related mentions are automatically updated.
  • Distraction-free writing: You can create and reference new components on the fly without breaking your writing flow.

Creating a Mention ​

To mention an existing component or board:

  1. While typing, type the @ character.
  2. Start typing the name of the component or board.
  3. Select the correct item from the dropdown list.

ℹ️ Make sure to leave a space before typing the @ character.

Creating new components ​

Mentions also allow you to create new components as you write.

To create one, type @ followed by the desired name and press Enter. Arcweave will automatically create and mention the new component without interrupting your writing flow.

To include spaces in the name, use underscores (_). For example, typing @bronze_key will create a component named bronze key.
