Features/PDF annotation

• PDF annotation
  • Open a PDF that lives in your graph's assets/ (or drop one in). On desktop it opens as a normal tab in a companion pane, keeping the page you came from visible; on a phone it opens in the same one-pane history.
  • Select text in the PDF to highlight it; click a highlight again to change its color.
  • Hold Shift while dragging a rectangle on Linux or Windows, or Command on macOS, then choose a color to clip a figure or equation as an image highlight. Dismissing the color chooser writes nothing.
  • Use the reader toolbar to choose a persistent Light, Warm, or Dark page theme, and open Outline to navigate a PDF's nested table of contents.
  • Every highlight becomes a block on a notes page named after the PDF, so you can write underneath it, link it, and reference it like any other bullet — and each note jumps straight back to its spot in the document.
  • It's how you turn a paper into linked, searchable notes without ever leaving Tine.
  • For the end-to-end path from dropping a PDF in to quoting its passages and sharing the result, see Workflows/Research a document.
• Create one yourself
  • 1. Put a PDF in your graph's assets/ folder, or drop it into a page.
  • 2. Open the PDF from its asset link. On desktop, drag its tab to any existing pane or drop it on a pane edge to put it in a new split or quadrant. On a phone, use Back to return to the page that contained the link.
  • 3. Select text to create a highlight, or hold Shift (Linux/Windows) or Command (macOS) and drag a rectangle for an area highlight, then choose its color.
  • 4. Write notes under the generated highlight blocks.
  • 5. What you should see: each highlight is a normal block that links back to the exact PDF location.
