Start writing your Essays on Protolyst

Since filming this video, we’ve made some updates and developments so your Protolyst workspace may appear a little different to the one shown!

We’ve added a References Section that automatically appears as you add Atoms into a Page to go alongside the Citation feature. When you download your Essay, you’ll have a References Section included listing all your Sources.

When an Atom is added into a Page, a Citation and Reference are automatically added into the Page. You can edit the Info that appears for your Source in the References Section.

We’ve also updated how your Atoms appear in the Atom List:

  • Atoms are grouped by Source Page – indicated in blue above a group of Atoms
  • Tags are muted, so you can focus on the Atom Text
  • Full Screen View – at the top of the List on the Right, you can open up your Atoms to view in full screen
