Toolbar

The Toolbar is found above the editor and is split into five sections:

1. Emphasis
2. Header & Blocks
3. Links & Images
4. Larger Blocks & Emojis
5. Settings

Emphasis

These buttons are able to either surround selected text with the necessary symbols to emphasize it or insert the symbols without any content between them to be filled out by you. The icons on the buttons should be rather easy to identify. Nonetheless, here is their functionality:

1. bold e.g **text**
2. italic e.g *text*
3. underscore e.g _text_
4. strikethrough e.g ~~text~~
5. subscript e.g ~text~
6. superscript e.g ^text^

Header & Blocks

These buttons all work a bit different so, we will describe each on separately:

1. Heading
   Adds # in front of the line. If the line is already starting with a # adds just #.
2. Code Blocks
   Adds ``` around the selected text or if no text is selected just adds two lines with ``` and an empty line between them.
3. Quote
   Adds > in front of the line.
4. Unordered List
   Ads - in front of the line.
5. Ordered List
   Adds 1. in front of the line.
6. ToDo List
   Adds - [ ] in front of the line.

Links & Images

These buttons add the corresponding syntax at the current cursor position. If some text is selected it will either put that as the link, if it thinks that the selected text is a link, or as the alt text.

1. Link
   Adds the link template [](https://) (For more information see the markdown link documentation)
2. Image
   Adds the image placeholder ![](https://) (For more information see the markdown image documentation)
3. Image Upload
   Asks the user to upload an image from their computer and then inserts it in the note.

Larger Blocks & Emojis

1. Table
   This button opens an overlay, which lets you choose the size of your table up to 10 columns and 8 rows. By clicking on any of the squares a table with the corresponding size will be added to the note at the position of your cursor.
   
   A larger table can be created by clicking the 'Custom Size' button.
   
   In the modal you can specify the exact dimension of your table.

2. Horizontal Line
   This button adds --- at the current position of your cursor in the note.

3. Collapsable Block
   This button adds a template for a Collapsable Block like this:

   :::spoiler Toggle label
   Toggled content
   :::
   

4. Comment
   This button adds > [] at the beginning of the line. You can either specify a name for your comment by inserting name=$YourName, a time by inserting time=$time or a color by inserting color=#FFFFFF in the []. Please note that you can only specify one of those per [], but you can use multiple [].

5. Emoji Picker
   This button opens the emoji picker, where you can choose an emoji or a fork awesome icon to insert into your note.
