I'm just goofing around here to experiment with a couple features I rarely use.

A list


  1. Item #1
  2. Item #2
  3. Item #3


A different list


  • Item #4
  • Item #5
  • Item #6


A third list


  1. Item #7
  2. Item #8
  3. Item #9


Interesting - So number and letter bullets don't work, but regular bullets do. Good to know.

What does this do?



Aha, it creates a headline. So that's how DTOM does that! Learned something. (also inserts some spaces).


How is this different from a "quote"?



How is this one different from a "quote"


Interesting - The boxes are formatted differently.

This concludes our testing. We will now return you to your regularly schedule programming already in progress.

LOL!

Well, I included the annotations in case anyone ever read this thread and wanted to see how to do something. Then all they would have to do is 'reply' and they would see the BB Code text of how to do it.

Neither did that.


Interesting result. Not what I expected exactly, but still cool.

It worked fine for me. Cool feature, I had no idea that existed.

At the very real risk of creating a monster (because I hate rainbow text), have you seen Loam’s Guide To BB Code

Not here on ATS, right?

I promise I won't do rainbow text, so no monster here.

Thanks!

It's interesting to see how some of the formats illustrated by Loam have gone away. One is identical to one my examples above.

Yes, some standard bb code is disabled here on ATS. Partly because it is a forum but mostly so it does not endlessly screw up said forum.

Sometimes you will see post after post in bold or italics due to bb code errors (some I have no doubt were deliberate just to cause minor chaos). Throwing toys out of the playpen stuff.

You knew this would happen right?

I used to see that happen on my phone all the time, and I always wondered if that was the cause! You'd get through a couple pages of normal text, and then someone would put something in italics, and every post after that would be in italic font. I figured someone didn't close out the BB Code statement.

Don't think I've ever seen it on my laptop though.

What this thread needs is a Japanese crown. Just 'cause.

This has been more entertaining than the usual going on around here. I'd of starred you if I could've lol. I never thought to finagle much here.
