Basic text styles

The basic style feature acts as the base for the editor toolset. It provides the most frequently used formatting essential to content creation, such as bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, subscript, superscript, and code.

You can apply basic formatting using the toolbar buttons or the autoformatting options. Some styles can also be applied using keyboard shortcuts. You can remove basic text style using the remove format option.

Type around inline code

To type inside a code element, move the caret to its (start or end) boundary. Typing and applying formatting will be done within its boundaries, as long as the code remains highlighted.

To type before or after a code element, move the caret to its boundary, then press the Arrow key (→ or ←) once. Whatever text you type or formatting you apply will not be highlighted and enclosed by the code element.
