# Other button & Live Edits

## Here's how you can make quick edits to your templates during the Note-writing process.

### The ‘Other’ button

The **‘Other’ button** allows you to remove all the existing button options and instead type in a response.

This is marked by the green pen icon next to the ‘Other’ button.

To permanently add whatever "other" option you just typed, you can use our 'Edits on the fly' feature. Marked by a green underline, this lets you instantly add this new option to your template for future use.

Our AI will recognise if you repeatedly type ‘Other’ options and suggest a new button for your template.

Note that for Universal Blocks such as the Nurse option, the 'Other' option does not currently work with Edits on the fly. To update your nurse options or any other Universal Block visit your [Universal Blocks page](https://editor.trykiroku.com/universal-blocks).

### Live edits

In the example above, did you notice the **green underline** when you typed in text after you had clicked the 'Other' button?

We call this 'Edits on the fly' and it allows you to make quick edits to your template as you're using it.

When you **hover over the green underline**, it will ask if you want to make changes to your template to incorporate this new information.

**Click on the green box to confirm** and from now on, you’ll never need to type that into this template again. **Clicking this will permanently change the text/buttons in your template.**

This also happens if you amend any text in your template (either line headings, text or outputted button options).

You can, of course, always just ignore it if you don’t want to make changes to your template.

If you ignore this option, any text amendments will be for this set of notes only.

You can disable 'Edits on the fly' within your settings.

We don't recommend relying on this method to modify your templates. Our team is on hand to help you customise our Templates to suit your needs. 

This way of editing your notes is intended for small tweaks only.
