Window

Keep new windows on top
Automatically set new windows to “float” above other applications.
Raise window on update
When a change is detected in a watched file, the preview window for that document will rise above other windows on your Desktop without activating Marked.
Translucent in background
Fade the window when it’s not focused. Use the slider to set the opacity.
Disable memory-intensive features on large documents
Disable some processor-intensive features such as collapsible headlines when documents are over 100k.
New documents open in
Choose windows, tabs, or automatic (follow the macOS system setting for tabbing). When using tabs, navigate with ++{/] and the Quick Open panel.
Bring updated document to front
When a preview is updated, select its tab or order its window to the front within Marked only. If another application is frontmost (e.g. your text editor), Marked stays in the background—the correct tab is selected so it is ready when you switch back to Marked. To pop the preview above all applications without activating Marked, use Raise window on update instead.
Return focus to previous app
When enabled, if a raise/bring-on-update action causes Marked to take foreground focus, keyboard focus is returned to the app that was frontmost before the update (such as your text editor). When disabled, Marked never performs this focus handoff. If Marked does not become frontmost, this option has no effect.

Status bar

Show style picker
Shows the style picker in the bottom bar of the preview window.
Show word count
Show word count (and statistics button) in the bottom bar of the preview window.

  • Footnotes/Citations
  • Blockquotes
  • Indented code blocks (fenced code blocks are always excluded)
  • Image captions
