Formatting page text

To format the text of a Wiki page, special symbols are used. These are markup elements. Using markup, you can highlight text in bold or italics, add titles and lists to the page, insert links, images, tables, and so on.

You can add markup elements to a page using formatting panels or enter markup symbols from the keyboard. The result can be seen on the right side of the view panel.

Formatting panel

To add frequently used formatting elements to the text, use the panel at the top of the page.

There are two ways to work with the formatting panel:

• To add a markup element to the text, place the cursor in the desired position and click on the formatting panel. A markup template will appear in the text. Add your text to it. If you clicked Add link or Insert code, in the window that appears, enter your text and click Add.

• To format text that has already been added to the page, highlight the text and click relevant button in the formatting panel.

To cancel text formatting, delete the markup characters manually.

Markup elements

Wiki support Markdown markup for additional formatting elements that are not present in the standard Markdown syntax.

This section lists the most common markup features. For a complete list of supported elements, see Markdown markup.
