This page explains how to manipulate the note tree in TriliumNext, focusing on moving notes.

|

You can also move notes using the familiar cut and paste functions available in the context menu, or with the associated keyboard [shortcuts](../Keyboard%20Shortcuts.md): `CTRL-C` ( [copy](../Notes/Cloning%20Notes.md)), <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>X</kbd> (cut) and <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>V</kbd> (paste).

## Multiple selection
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to select multiple notes at one time.
|
||||
|
||||
To do so, first select the note to start the selection with. Then hold Shift and click on the note to end the selection with. All the notes between the start and the end note will be selected as well.

||||

|
||||

In the right-click menu, operations such as Cut, Copy, Move to, Clone to or Delete will apply to all the selected notes. It is also possible to apply <a class="reference-link" href="../../Advanced%20Usage/Bulk%20Actions.md">Bulk actions</a> to them. The rest of the options will not be available and will appear disabled in the menu.

# Note tree contextual menu
|
||||
<figure class="image image-style-align-right"><img style="aspect-ratio:372/760;" src="Note tree contextual menu_.png" width="372" height="760"></figure>
|
||||
|
||||
The _note tree menu_ can be accessed by right-clicking in the <a class="reference-link" href="../Note%20Tree.md">Note Tree</a>.
|
||||
|
||||
## Interaction
|
||||
|
||||
The contextual menu can operate:
|
||||
|
||||
* On a single note, by right clicking it in the note tree.
|
||||
* On multiple notes, by selecting them first. See <a class="reference-link" href="Multiple%20selection.md">Multiple selection</a> on how to do so.
|
||||
* When right clicking, do note that usually the note being right clicked is also included in the affected notes, regardless of whether it was selected or not.
|
||||
|
||||
## Available options
|
||||
|
||||
> [!NOTE]
|
||||
> When multiple notes are selected, only a subset of notes will be active. The ones that do support multiple notes will mention this in the list below.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Open in a new tab**
|
||||
* Will open a single note in a new [tab](../Tabs.md).
|
||||
* **Open in a new split**
|
||||
* Will open a split to the right with the given note within the current tab.
|
||||
* **Hoist note**
|
||||
* Will focus the note tree on this note. See <a class="reference-link" href="../../Navigation/Note%20Hoisting.md">Note Hoisting</a> for more information.
|
||||
* **Insert note after**
|
||||
* Allows easy creation of a note with a specified [note type](../../../Note%20Types.md).
|
||||
* <a class="reference-link" href="../../../Advanced%20Usage/Templates.md">Templates</a> will also be present (if any) at the end of the list.
|
||||
* The note will be added on the same level of hierarchy as the note selected.
|
||||
* **Insert child note**
|
||||
* Same as _Insert note after_, but the note will be created as a child of the selected note.
|
||||
* **Protect subtree**
|
||||
* Will mark this note and all of its descendents as protected. See <a class="reference-link" href="../../Notes/Protected%20Notes.md">Protected Notes</a> for more information.
|
||||
* **Unprotect subtree**
|
||||
* Will unprotect this note and all of its descendents.
|
||||
* **Cut**
|
||||
* Will place the given notes in clipboard.
|
||||
* Use one of the two paste functions (or the keyboard shortcuts) to move them to the desired location.
|
||||
* **Copy / clone**
|
||||
* Will place the given notes in clipboard.
|
||||
* Use one of the two paste functions (or the keyboard shortcuts) to copy them to the desired location.
|
||||
* Note that the copy function here works according to the <a class="reference-link" href="../../Notes/Cloning%20Notes.md">Cloning Notes</a> functionality (i.e. the note itself will be present in two locations at once, and editing it in one place will edit it everywhere).
|
||||
* To simply create a duplicate note that can be modified independently, look for _Duplicate subtree_.
|
||||
* **Paste into**
|
||||
* If there are any notes in clipboard, they will be pasted as child notes to the right-clicked one.
|
||||
* **Paste after**
|
||||
* If there are any notes in clipboard, they will be pasted underneath the right-clicked one.
|
||||
* **Move to…**
|
||||
* Will display a modal to specify where to move the desired notes.
|
||||
* **Clone to…**
|
||||
* Will display a modal to specify where to [clone](../../Notes/Cloning%20Notes.md) the desired notes.
|
||||
* **Delete**
|
||||
* Will delete the given notes, asking for confirmation first.
|
||||
* In the dialog, the following options can be configured:
|
||||
* _Delete also all clones_ to ensure that the note will be deleted everywhere if it has been placed into multiple locations (see <a class="reference-link" href="../../Notes/Cloning%20Notes.md">Cloning Notes</a>).
|
||||
* _Erase notes permanently_ will ensure that the note cannot be recovered from <a class="reference-link" href="../Recent%20Changes.md">Recent Changes</a>.
|
||||
* **Import into note**
|
||||
* Opens the [import](../../Import%20%26%20Export) dialog and places the imported notes as child notes of the selected one.
|
||||
* **Export**
|
||||
* Opens the [export](../../Import%20%26%20Export) dialog for the selected notes.
|
||||
* **Search in subtree**
|
||||
* Opens a full <a class="reference-link" href="../../Navigation/Search.md">Search</a> with it preconfigured to only look into this note and its descendants (the _Ancestor_ field).
|
||||
|
||||
