Creating annotations and footnotes
You can add annotations and footnotes to your GROWI wiki. When you add an annotation, a footnote appears at the bottom of the page.
How to write annotations and footnotes
Using references
You can add a footer reference to a footnote using the notation
[^#]
, where #
is the footnote number, e.g. [^1]
, [^2]
, etc. You can add a footnote reference anywhere in the document you want. The corresponding footnote should be annotated using [^#]:
, the same text but with a colon at the end.
You can write the annotation reference using plain English as well.
For example, you could use an annotation like [^longnote]
; the footnote would be annotated [^longnote]:
(with a colon).
Both the reference [^1]
and the annotation [^1]:
must exist.
If either one is not present, the other will not function as an annotation.
Inline annotations
You can add annotations inline using the Markdown code [^Add annotation text inline]
(using your own annotation text).
When you use a text annotation, the footnote will automatically be assigned a numeric reference.
Writing long footnotes with paragraphs
If you would like to add a line break into your footnote, you can continue your footnote after the line break by adding an indentation to the beginning of the following paragraph.
Example
## annotations
When an annotation is set, its contents are expanded at the bottom of the page.
You can write a reference [^1] to the footnote.
You can also add an inline footnote ^[Add annotation text inline].
Long footnotes can be written like this[^longnote].
[^1]: A reference to the first footnote.
[^longnote]: This is an example of writing footnotes in multiple blocks.
Subsequent paragraphs are indented and belong to the previous footnote.
