Applies To

Fuze Mobile
Chat

Procedure

Want to emphasize an important point or make it clearer when you’ve edited a message? Along with mentions, file sharing, and emoji, you can apply formatting to text in chat messages, including bold, italics, strikethrough, quoting, preformatted, and code using formatting characters, or markdown syntax.

Additionally, you can view an in-app guide that shows how to format text. This guide appears above the message field as you type, and automatically hides when you are not typing a message.

You can also apply formatting to selected words or phrases via the More Options section of the long press menu.

The following table provides an overview of the formatting features that are available in Chat.

Formatting	Characters
Bold	sample text
Italic	Wrap text with underscores: _sample text_
Strikethrough	Start and finish text with tildes: ~sample text~
Quoted text allows you to call attention to a specific sample of writing or a quote by indenting and adding a left border to the text.	Begin text with an angle bracket ("greater than" symbol): >sample text
Preformatted text blocks preserve any spacing or line breaks exactly as entered.	Wrap text in three single quotation marks: '''sample text'''
Code format allows you to send a block of code in plain text with an alternate font color and gray background. Similar to preformatted text, this format also preserves any spacing or line breaks exactly as entered.	Wrap text in single quotation marks: 'sample text'
