Any shortcuts for formatting text in chatbox

[dexterLearning]

Hello Everyone,

Is there any shortcuts to format text in chatbox.
i am pretty sure we cant do it using html tags. the only supported html tag was <br />.

is there any way i can use bold/color using html or any other way?

Thanks,

Hi there,

As far as I know jabber does not support any markdown language for formatting text (Cisco Spark has some support for this). The only shortcuts that I am aware of for jabber are the following, which are documented here:

Operation	Keyboard Shortcut
Bold font	CTRL + B
Italic font	CTRL + I
Underline	CTRL + U
Copy	CTRL + C
Paste	CTRL + V
Cut	CTRL + X
Undo	CTRL + Z
Redo	CTRL + Y

The only method I am aware of to change text font, colour, or size is to use the "edit the font" button.

I hope this answers your question.

Thanks jonathan,

I appreaciate your help.
I am in a process of building a bot. So looking to display formatted
outputs instead of plain text.
Without markdown support, maybe i should think of different approach..
