Command Menu (Slash Menu)

Last updated:

The slash menu is the fastest way to insert any block type using just the keyboard. Press / on an empty line to open it.

How to Open

Place the cursor on a new empty line and press /. A searchable command list appears. Start typing the block name to filter results.

/ → opens the menu
/co → shows "Code Block", "Callout"
/ta → shows "Table", "Task List"

Markdown Shortcuts

Many blocks can be created without opening the menu — using Markdown syntax directly:

# Heading    → H1 (press Space after #)
## Heading   → H2
- Item       → bulleted list
1. Item      → numbered list
> Quote      → blockquote

Markdown shortcuts only trigger at the beginning of a line when you press Space after the character.
