It also has options to modify the background tint opacity, but it isn't quite like the frosted glass we had in Aero. You can switch between a Light theme, a Dark theme or set the app to use your Windows mode. This is where Notepads really stands out. Hit the monitor and brush icon, to get to the Personalization menu. Here you will be able to toggle Word wrap, change the font, switch between different Line Ending options, set a default encoding format, and the Tab key behavior (to define the number of spaces). The Settings has its own menu, which appears on the right edge of the screen. Take that Notepad!Ĭlicking the menu button in the corner of Notepads UI, brings up your basic options like New, Open, Save, Save As, Find, Replace and Settings. Though it isn't mentioned in the description, Notepads supports unlimited undo and redo.

Other handy shortcuts in the app include Ctrl + N or T to open a new document, Ctrl and + (to increase) or Ctrl and - (to decrease) changes the font size, and you can use Ctrl and 0 to reset it.

Hopefully this will fix the constant alt-tab-ING which I do and end up on the wrong document, and repeat the process. Control + tab switches to the next open tab not a unique feature for a text editor but still an essential feature. This is perhaps my favorite feature in Notepads, each document opens in a tab.
