Drupal: The Editor Toolbar

These are the Drupal editor tools we use to edit web content.

Cut, Copy, Paste:

The Drupal editor toolbar does not show button icons for cut, copy or paste.

A. You may use these keyboard equivalents:

• Cut = Ctrl+X (Windows) or Command+X (Mac)

• Copy = Ctrl+C (Windows) or Command+C (Mac)

• Paste = Ctrl+V (Windows) or Command+V (Mac)

• Paste without formatting (or Paste and match style) = Ctrl+Shift+V (Windows) or Command+Shift+V (Mac)

B. Or, you may right-click on your mouse to access those functions:

Headings and Paragraph Formats menu:

Use the left-most Format menu to change the style of the selected text to a Heading style or reset it back to Paragraph style for body text.
Learn how to format text.

Styles menu:

The Styles menu provides a few additional styles, which should be used sparingly.

Use these to stylize text. Do not add Bold to text that is already in a Heading format.
