Styling can be applied to most text fields in the workspace, including Access Notes, Scope of Works, and Timeline.
How to style text boxes
Headings: Add number signs (#) in front of a word or phrase to define the heading level, with one # for the largest heading (level 1) # Fire Detection and Alarm System and size for the smallest (level 6) ###### After-hours access required.
Italic: Add one asterisk (*) or underscore (_) before and after a word or phrase, e.g. *Replace* or _Level 1 cabinet_.
Bold: Add two asterisks (**) or underscores (__) before and after a word or phrase, e.g. **isolator switch** or __sprinkler__.
Italic and Bold: Add three asterisks (***) or underscores (___) before and after a word or phrase, e.g. ***fault condition*** or ___booster panel___.
Numbered List: Start each line with a number followed by a period and a space, e.g. 1. Isolate power to the FIP. To create an indented (sub) item, add four spaces (not Tab) before the number, e.g. a. Mount replacement securely.
Bulleted List: Add dashes (-), asterisks (*), or plus signs (+) in front of line items, e.g. - Disable zone 2 smoke detectors. To create an indented (sub) item, add four spaces (not Tab) before the symbol, e.g. - Remove existing detector in stairwell.
Horizontal Line: Use three or more asterisks (***) or dashes (---). Make sure there is a blank line both before and after the horizontal line to be displayed correctly.
Links and Email Addresses: To quickly turn a URL or email address into a link, enclose it in angle brackets (<>), e.g. <[email protected]>. To create a hyperlinked text, enclose the text in square brackets ([]) and follow with the URL in brackets (()), e.g. [Visit the website](https:www.uptickhq.com). The https:// part of the link must be present for it to be interpreted as a link.
Bold and italic styling is available for hyperlinked text as well.
Mouse-over tooltip: Enclosing your message (tooltip to appear when hovering the mouse over the link) in quotes ("") after the URL before the closing bracket, eg. [Visit the website](https:www.uptickhq.com "This will take you to the official Uptick website").
Symbols: There is a selection of symbols that can be displayed using the syntax

Escaping Characters: To display special Markdown characters without triggering styling, place a backslash (\) in front of the character, eg. \* Without the backslash, this would be a bullet in an bulleted list. This applies only to specific characters: backslash (\), backtick (`), asterisk (*), underscore (_), curly braces ({}), brackets ([]), angle brackets (<>), parentheses (()), pound sign (#), plus sign (+), minus sign (-), and dot (.).
