Text, headings and pictures

On an empty spot of the page, type " to start a text region, or just type a word and a space: a word followed by a space becomes text, and the typing carries on there. Press Escape (or click elsewhere) to finish; click the text again to change it.

Text is written in Markdown, and drawn formatted when you leave it:

**bold**, *italic*bold, italic

Math inside text isn’t worked out: put calculations in math regions beside the text.

Insert → Picture… puts a PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP or SVG at the crosshair, or paste a picture copied from another program with Ctrl+V.

  • A picture is kept inside the .bbm file, so the sheet stays one file to send.
  • Click a picture to select it; drag it to move it, or drag the handle at its bottom-right corner to resize it (it keeps its shape unless you hold Shift). Delete removes it.
  • Right-click it for Copy as image.

Pictures over 3 MB make the file large, so Beermat asks first.
