WriterPro Action Puck Floating Commands for Writers | WriterPro
The Action Puck is WriterPro’s floating command center. Instead of a permanent ribbon or sidebar of buttons, it appears where your cursor is — so formatting, block actions, and tools show up only when you need them.
The problem it solves
Traditional editors force a constant choice: keep toolbars visible (noisy) or hide them (slow). The Action Puck sits in the middle:
- Near the text you care about
- Out of the way when you’re typing
- Complete enough for real work (headings, lists, tables, media, actions)
If you love the slash command (/) for structure, think of the Puck as the visual twin: intent → action → back to writing.
What you can do with it
- Apply formatting without selecting a menu path
- Insert blocks (lists, quotes, code, images)
- Reach AI helpers and block-level actions without losing place
- Stay in True Focus Mode while still editing structure
Utility for a minimal writing workflow
- Less mouse travel — commands come to you
- Fewer mode switches — draft and structure share one surface
- Cleaner screen — no permanent chrome
- Faster second drafts — restructure without opening a “properties” panel
How it fits WriterPro
WriterPro is a minimal writing tool with a markdown-native editor. The Action Puck is how power stays available without becoming the product.
