Frequently Asked Questions
Why aren’t slash (/) and @ commands working?
Slash (/) and @ commands are designed to work seamlessly without interrupting your writing flow. For this reason:
- If your cursor is in the middle or at the end of a line, add a space before typing / or @.
- If your cursor is at the beginning of a line, just type / or @ followed by your text to trigger the command.
