If you insert a picture, you can resize it by dragging the corners. You can also rotate it: Right-click

menu—a great way to get instant access to something you refer to a lot, like
your list of credit cards, things to do, or an essay in progress.

There are a few miscellaneous settings in Settings (in the menu), the
