[[start|Home]] ¦ [[working_with_pages|Working with Pages]] ===== Editing Toolbar Top Row ===== {{:images:edit_menu.png?nolink&650 |}} ==== Font Family ==== {{:images:family_only.png?nolink|}}{{ :images:edit_font.png?nolink&150|}}Clicking on the arrow next to Font Family will open a drop-down list of the Fonts available. Use this function sparingly if at all. There is no guarantee that the person viewing the page will have that font on their computer and if not the browser will its default font. Use heading styles or bold / italics to emphasise text. If something particular is required contact ISD Consultants who can define a special reusable text format for you. ---- ==== Font Size ==== {{:images:sizes_only.png?nolink|}}{{ :images:edit_font_size.png?nolink&150|}}Clicking on the arrow next to Font Size will open a drop-down list of the Fonts sizes. Use this function sparingly as increasing the font size of text can result in making the page look ragged and untidy. ---- ==== Text Formatting ==== === Bold === {{:images:bold_only.png?nolink|}} Apply **Bold** to selected text. === Italic === {{:images:italic_only.png?nolink|}} Apply //Italic// to selected text. === Underscore === {{:images:underscore_only.png?nolink|}} Apply __Underscore__ to selected text. This is not recommended as the reader may assume that the text is a link. === Strike Through === {{:images:strike_only.png?nolink|}} Apply deleted strike-through to selected text. Again not recommended unless it is to make a particular statement. === Bullets === {{:images:bullet_only.png?nolink|}} Create a Bulleted List === Numbered List === {{:images:numbered_only.png?nolink|}} Create a Numbered List === Block Quote === {{:images:block_only.png?nolink|}} To create and emphasise a block of text. ==== Text Alignment ==== === Align Left === {{:images:left_only.png?nolink|}} Align text to the left. === Align Centre === {{:images:centre_only.png?nolink|}} Align text to the centre. === Align Right === {{:images:right_only.png?nolink|}} Align text to the right. === Align Justify === {{:images:justify_only.png?nolink|}} Align text to the full width of the page (justify). ==== Hyperlinks ==== === Hyperlink === {{:images:link_only.png?nolink|}} Used to create an internet link to another page on this site or an external website. The text or image that you want to link needs to be selected first before the button will become active. === Un-link === {{:images:break_only.png?nolink|}} Remove the internet link from the selected text or image. Your cursor must be sitting on an active link for the button to be active. ==== Special Formats ==== === Read More === {{:images:more_only.png?nolink|}} Inserts the More tag into your Page. Most blogs only display a small excerpt of a Post and you’re required to click the Post title or a ‘Read more...’ link to continue reading the rest of the article. When you insert a ‘More’ tag into your Post, everything prior to the tag is considered as this excerpt. Most times you’d only use this button when you’re creating a blog Post, rather than a Page. === Horizontal Rule === {{:images:horizontal_only.png?nolink|}} Add a Horizontal Rule at this point in the text. Again use sparingly if at all as it can break up the pages appearance too much. ==== Additional Functions ==== === Toggle Toolbar === {{:images:menu_only.png?nolink|}}Used to show or hide the second row of formatting buttons on the editor toolbar. === Slide Show === {{:images:slides_only.png?nolink|image of slide show icon}}This icon will only be present if the site has the slide show plug-in installed. See section **** for more detail on slide show management.
