Structure Elements
By default, the switchable toolbar displays the Structure
elements.
The following sections describe the elements you
can create with these buttons.
Paragraphs
Click to create a new
paragraph. If there is a text selection, the entire selection becomes a
paragraph.
You can use the Inspector to set the paragraph
to one of the following tags:
-
Plain (<P>)
-
Preformatted (<PRE>)
-
Address (<ADDRESS>)
-
Block quote (<BLOCKQUOTE>)
-
Division (<DIV>)
Lists
Click to create a new list.
If there is a selection, each line in the selection becomes a list item
(<LI>). By default the list is an unordered (bulleted) list (<UL>).
You can use the Inspector to change the list to an ordered list (<OL>).
You can also change the way in which lists appear; for example, displaying
an ordered list in Roman numerals (on browsers that support this feature).
When typing in a list:
-
Press Shift-Enter to create a new list item. (If you simply press Enter,
you will create a line break but no new list item.)
-
Press Tab to create a new list nested inside the original list.
-
Press Shift-Tab to move the nesting out one level.
Headings
Click to create a heading.
By default, an <H3> element is created. You can use the Inspector to
change the level of the heading to between <H1> and <H6>.
Horizontal Rule
Click to create horizontal
rule (<HR>) element. You can use the Inspector to vary its height and
width, and whether it is displayed in 3D.
Images
Click to add a static image
(<IMG>). A Select Image panel appears, allowing you to select an image
file to display at the insertion point. The Inspector allows you to change
the image's properties, including its size, file path, and whether it uses
an absolute or relative reference.
Note: Any selected elements are replaced
by the image.
With static images, you must specify a known
file path. You can also create a dynamic image, which refers to
an image file that lives in your project or in a framework. See "Dynamic
Images" for more information.
To set an image for the page background, see
"Setting Page Attributes".
