Long-form writing needs distraction-free windows. Zen Mode strips out the UI and leaves a single centred column of text.

Enter Zen Mode
Common entries:
- Keyboard shortcut (varies by version; common:
Cmd/Ctrl Shift Z) - Command palette (
Cmd/Ctrl K) → search "Zen Mode" - The editor's top bar may have a Zen icon
After entry:
- Text centred, narrow column
- File tree, AI Coach, activity bar all hidden
- Only the editor and what you type
Common adjustments
Inside Zen Mode you can usually adjust (varies by version):
- Column width — narrow / medium / wide (affects characters per line)
- Sentence focus — current sentence stays normal, others fade
- Typewriter mode — cursor stays fixed at vertical centre
- Floating reference / floating AI — pull up notes or the Coach without breaking Zen
Toggles live in a floating menu inside Zen or under Account → Preferences after exit.
Exit
Usually Esc, the Zen shortcut again, or the floating menu → "Exit Zen Mode".
Recommended Zen writing session
- Set a 25 / 50 / 90 min timer
- Mute OS notifications
- Enter Zen
- Turn on Typewriter mode (if available)
- Write
