Color only#

Use this for visual grouping without changing descriptions.

  1. Add a preset in Project Settings.
  2. Give it a recognizable name and color.
  3. Leave Preset Text empty.
  4. Apply it to selected comments.

Add a label#

Use this for labels such as Server, Client, or TODO.

  1. Set Preset Text to a label followed by a separator, such as **TODO: **.
  2. Enable Prefix existing comment.
  3. Select the comment and apply the preset.

A comment that already begins with that exact prefix keeps one copy. A different label can still be added in front of an existing label.

Use a fixed heading#

Set Preset Text to the complete heading and turn prefix mode off. Applying the card replaces the old text. Use Shift+Enter in the preset text field for another line.

Keep cards easy to scan#

Use short preset names and colors with enough contrast to read the preview. Order entries in the Presets list in the order you want the cards to appear.

Changing a preset does not automatically restyle older comments. Reselect the comment and apply the new card when ready.
