+> If you want to use something which would otherwise be evaluated as a template tag or function but not have it evaluated in actions, it needs to be escaped by placeing a single backslash () character before it. So, for example `\[[title]]` would be ignored and not replaced with the title of the draft. The escaping backslash would be removed, however.

Delivering this multi-display support is only possible with the full power of M1-based iPads. Customers with iPad Pro 3rd and 4th generation have expressed strong interest in being able to experience Stage Manager on their iPads. In response, our teams have worked hard to find a way to deliver a single-screen version for these systems, with support for up to four live apps on the iPad screen at once._
