.Rewrite text
With Writing Tools, you can rewrite text you’ve just written — like class notes or a blog post — to ensure everything reads well. You can also adjust the tone of your writing to suit the audience and task at hand.
Select the text you want to refine, Control-click the selected text, choose Writing Tools, then click Show Writing Tools.
Tip: In some apps — like Notes and Mail — you can open Writing Tools by holding the pointer over the selected text, then clicking
.Undo a change: Click
in the toolbar.
To summarise text, do any of the following:
Summarise text: Click Summary.
Summarise the key points of the text: Click Key Points.
Organise the original text in a list: Click List.
Organise the original text in a table: Click Table.
A rewritten version of your text appears.
After viewing the summary, do any of the following:
Copy the summary: Click Copy.
Replace the original text with the summary: Click Replace.
Note: Replace doesn’t appear if the original text can’t be edited — for example, if it’s in a web page.
