The formatting toolbar

After you've added some content blocks to your page, you can start to edit them to suit your needs.

Clicking inside any block will make two floating toolbars appear, which allow you to control the blocks and their contents. The one which floats at the top of the edit screen is the formatting toolbar.

When you drop a block on your page, by default it will have some basic formatting applied which matches your site design. Using the formatting toolbar, you can override these settings manually to change headings, colours, add links and icons, and so on.

Most of the buttons apply to any text you have selected. From left to right, the toolbar options are as follows:

• Bold
• Italicise
• Other formatting options (underline, strikethrough, super and sub text, case)
  
• Text settings (font size, letter spacing)
  
• Apply colour to text, or background
• Change font
• Set to heading (1-4), paragraph, or block quote
• Set text alignment to left, centre, right or justified
• Indent, outdent, ordered list, or unordered list
• Insert table
• Insert image
• Add a link
• Remove a link
• Insert an icon
• Remove all formatting you have applied
• View and edit the HTML source of the page's entire editable area

Once you've got your content just right, you might want to duplicate it or move it around the page - and you can do just that using the block toolbar.
