Tablo is designed to keep you focused. Once your thoughts are written down, you can use headings and dividers to help organise and plan your writing.
Headings & sub-headings
Create headings and sub-headings to give your writing structure, and help your readers find what they want to read. You can add headings to your writing in a few ways:
Click the + in the left margin that appears while you are writing, and select the size heading you want.
Highlight some text to make the select toolbar appear. Choose the size heading you want.
# followed by space to create an H1 heading.
## followed by space to create an H2 sub-heading.
Dividers
At times in your writing you may want to add a space, but not a new heading or chapter. Dividers are symbols with automatic line spacing before and after. Use them to mark transitions in your writing, like scene changes or time shifts.
To add a divider, click the + in the left margin that appears while you are writing, and select Horizontal line.
Quotes
Perhaps you want to mark the beginning of each chapter with a phrase, quote or verse. Or call out a particular chunk of text for special attention. A quote is your tool for this.
To create a quote, highlight some text to make the select toolbar appear, and select Block quote.
Heading & divider questions
Can I create custom dividers?
There isn’t a way to change the symbol. It’s decided by the theme. You might switch themes, to see if you prefer the symbol within a different theme.
How do I remove the quotation marks that appear above my quote?
There isn't a way to do this. The quotation mark is part of the block quote style. You could remove the style, and format the quote manually, in italics.
