Type Shortcuts

When you type these prefixes at the start of a point, Decomposer auto-converts the point type.

  • - -> Unordered list item
  • 1. (or any number like 7. ) -> Ordered list item
  • # through ###### -> Heading 1 through Heading 6
  • - [ ] -> To-do (unchecked)
  • - [x] (or - [X] ) -> To-do (checked)
  • [ ] or [x] on an unordered list item -> Converts it to a to-do
  • > -> Blockquote
  • (four spaces) -> Paragraph with a sentence child
  • . -> Sentence
  • --- -> Horizontal rule
  • ``` -> Code

Notes:

  • These are prefix shortcuts, so they trigger from the text before your cursor.
  • For code, typing three backticks converts the point to code.
