The XNote Smart Pen uses dot patterns on each page to identify your writing. Since notebooks of the same size share identical dot patterns, you need to set a primary notebook for each size so the pen knows where to save your notes.
There are three primary notebook slots:
- Mini (small notebooks)
- Standard (standard notebooks)
- Large (large notebooks)
When you write with your smart pen, your notes will be saved to the primary notebook of the matching size. If no primary notebook is set for a size, a warning banner will appear on relevant screens prompting you to set one.
How to set a primary notebook:
- From Notebook Settings: Tap the three-dot menu on any notebook card and select "Set as Primary". For details (see 2.6.3).
- From Settings: Go to Settings -> Primary Notebooks to view and assign a primary notebook for each size in one place. For details (see 2.17.4).
If you create your first notebook of a size, it will automatically be set as your primary notebook.
If you delete a primary notebook, XNote will automatically assign another notebook of the same size as primary.
Tap the info icon in the Primary Notebooks settings header for a help screen explaining when and why to update your selections.
