This guide provides instructions on how to use the in-line template feature to quickly insert templates while typing in chart notes and other text fields within Suno.
Overview
The in-line template feature allows you to insert templates directly while typing using a simple forward-slash / shortcut. This feature is designed to streamline your charting process and save time during documentation.
Prerequisites
Active templates configured in your Suno system.
Using In-Line Templates
Quick Template Insertion with Forward-slash
Begin typing your chart note or documentation as normal.
When you want to insert a template, press the forward-slash
/key.
Tip: You can also continue to type in the template name such as
/chartnoteto narrow down your selection.
A dropdown menu will appear showing all available templates.
Select the desired template from the list.
The template will be inserted at your cursor position.
Important Notes About Forward-slash Usage
The forward-slash shortcut is intelligent and will only trigger the template menu when used alone:
Will trigger templates: Pressing
/by itselfWill NOT trigger templates:
Using
/for fractions (e.g., "3/4" for three-fourths).Using
/followed immediately by numbers or letters.Using
/as part of other text formatting.
This ensures normal forward-slash usage is not interrupted by the template feature.
