Help:Formatting text

A wiki page can be designed in a number of different ways, using headers, lists and indenting.

Headings

 * It is good to break up long articles into various sections. This can be done using headings.


 * To create a header, highlight the text you wish to modify, and click on the [[File:Normal_button.png]] button. You will see a dropdown menu. From this list you can choose:
 * [[File:Paragraph_format.jpg]]


 * Normal keeps the text in a regular paragraph format.
 * [[File:Section_heading_2.png]]is the highest level of paragraph formatting. This is meant for major section headings.
 * [[File:Section_heading_3.png]]is a sub-header and can be used as a sub-section heading.
 * [[File:Section_heading_4.png]]is the smallest section header.
 * Formatted allows you to input pre-formatted text (this is text of a standard size and font).

Lists

 * If you would like to create a list, you can use either use bullets or numbers with [[File:Bullet&number_button.png]] the button on the toolbar.:


 * Numbers: Click on the numbers button [[File:Numbers.png]], and a 1. will appear. Add text after. When you hit enter, the subsequent number will appear. Hit enter twice to exit the number format.
 * Bullets: Click on the bullets button [[File:Bullets.png]], and a blue bullet will appear. Hit enter twice to exit the bullet format.

Indenting & Justifying

 * To indent to the text use the [[File:Indent.png]] button to move it to the left or right.


 * You can align text to the left, right, or center, using the [[File:Justify_button.png]].
