Format and edit text

Use the editing toolbar

The following formatting and editing options are available in the editing toolbar. All changes are visible to the candidate during exam delivery. 

1. Edit menu: undo, redo, cut, copy, or select text.
2. Insert menu: insert images, PDFs, media, equations, or special characters.
3. Format menu: apply basic formatting styles (such as bold or italic text) and heading styles (Heading 1, Heading 2, etc.), or clear all formatting from selected text.
4. Table menu: add tables.
5. Tools menu: additional options including Find and replace, Word count, and Source code (opens the HTML for the selected content area and make changes to the source code instead of using the text editor). Note: Spell check is available within text fields by right-clicking a red-underlined word to display alternate spelling suggestions. 
6. Insert variables: (if configured for your project) add variables within text in the item content (the question or response options).
7. Font: change the font style (e.g., Times New Roman, Arial, etc.) - the default style is set by the item bank manager.
8. Font size: change the size of the text - the default size is set by the item bank manager.
9. Text color: change the color of the text.
10. Bold and italic formatting: style the text as bold, italic, or bold and italic.
11. Alignment: align the selected text to the left side, right side, or center, or space the text evenly across the width of the page.
12. List styles: create an ordered list denoted by letter or number, or an unordered list denoted by bullet points.
13. Decrease or increase indent: removes or adds horizontal space at the beginning of a text line; or for lists, this option nests the bullet point or numbered line to the next higher (decrease indent) or lower (increase indent) level of the hierarchy.

Use the spell checker

Words identified as misspelled will be underlined in red. 

1. Right-click a red-underlined word to display the spell checker options.
   
2. Select one of the suggested spellings or other options: 
   1. More displays additional suggestions.
   2. Ignore removes the red underline for that instance of the spelling, but will still identify other instances of the same spelling.
   3. Ignore all removes the red underline for all instances of that spelling. 
   4. Learn adds the spelling as a word in the project's dictionary so that it is no longer triggered as misspelled by the spell checker.
