Markdown Toolbar

The Markdown toolbar sits between the tab bar and the editor. It lets you apply formatting with a single click — no need to memorize Markdown syntax.

Available Buttons

Button	Action	Markdown inserted
H1 / H2 / H3	Insert heading (dropdown for H1–H6)	# / ## / ### etc.
B	Bold	**text**
I	Italic	*text*
S	Strikethrough	~~text~~
Bullet list	Unordered list	- item
Numbered list	Ordered list	1. item
Checkbox	Task list item	- [ ] item
Link	Insert link	[text](url)
Image	Insert image	
Code	Code block	```
Quote	Blockquote	> text
Rule	Horizontal line	---
Table	Insert table template	Pipe-based table
Format Table	Tidy up and visually edit the table at the cursor (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+L)	—

How It Works

1. Without selection — Click a button to insert the formatting at the cursor position with placeholder text
2. With selection — Select text first, then click a button to wrap the selected text with the formatting

Note

The toolbar is especially useful if you are new to Markdown. You can write your text first and then apply formatting by selecting words and clicking toolbar buttons.

Editing Tables

The Format Table button opens Bokuchi’s visual table editor, where you can add rows and columns, set alignment, and edit cells without lining up pipes by hand. See Table Editing for the full workflow.

Hiding the Toolbar

If you prefer a cleaner editor, you can hide the formatting toolbar in Settings > Editor > Formatting Bar. It is also hidden automatically while you’re in Focus Mode.
