_Quick edit_ provides an alternative to the standard tab-based navigation and editing.
Instead of clicking on a note which switches the <a class="reference-link" href="Note%20Tree.md">Note Tree</a> to the newly selected note, or navigating between two different <a class="reference-link" href="Tabs.md">Tabs</a>, the _Quick edit_ feature opens as a popup window that can be easily dismissed.
This feature is also well integrated with <a class="reference-link" href="../../Note%20Types/Collections.md">Collections</a> such as the calendar view, which makes it easy to edit entries without having to go back and forth between the child note and the calendar.
## Feature highlights
* All note types are supported, including <a class="reference-link" href="../../Note%20Types/Collections.md">Collections</a>.
* Note that the <a class="reference-link" href="../Notes/Note%20List.md">Note List</a> will not be displayed, except for notes of type <a class="reference-link" href="../../Note%20Types/Collections.md">Collections</a>.
* For <a class="reference-link" href="../../Note%20Types/Text.md">Text</a> notes, depending on user preference, both the floating and classic editors are supported. See <a class="reference-link" href="../../Note%20Types/Text/Formatting%20toolbar.md">Formatting toolbar</a>.
* The title and the note and the icon are editable, just like a normal tab.
* The <a class="reference-link" href="../../Advanced%20Usage/Attributes/Promoted%20Attributes.md">Promoted Attributes</a> are also displayed.
* This integrates well with <a class="reference-link" href="../../Note%20Types/Collections.md">Collections</a> where there are predefined attributes such as the _Start date_ and _End date_, allowing for easy editing.
## Accessing the quick edit
* From the <a class="reference-link" href="Note%20Tree.md">Note Tree</a>:
