Markdowns

PixelChat supports markdowns that can format your messages to be more colorful, expressive, and easier to read. You can even have your character use markdowns for certain purposes like showing text messages, status displays or expressing themselves in more immersive ways.

Using certain special characters at the start and end of sentences will create the following effects:

Character	Example	Result
Single Asterisk *	*[message here]*	Blue and Italic Text
Double Asterisks **	**[message here]**	White and Bold Text
Triple Asterisks ***	***[message here]***	Blue, Bold and Italic Text
Single Backtick `	`[message here]`	Highlighted Text‎ ‎
Double Tilde ~~	~~[message here]~~	Strikethrough Text

Placing a pound, hashtag, or number sign (#) at the front of sentences will change the text to different heading sizes:

Character	Example	Result
One Hashtag #	#[message here]	Heading 1
Two Hashtags ##	##[message here]	Heading 2
Three Hashtags ###	###[message here]	Heading 3
Four Hashtags ####	####[message here]	Heading 4
Five Hashtags #####	#####[message here]	Heading 5
Six Hashtags ######	######[message here]	Heading 6

Creating a numbered list, even if the numbers aren’t correct, will produce a properly formatted numbered list:

List Format	Example	Result
Correctly Numbered List	1. Item 1 2. Item 2 3. Item 3	1. Item 1 2. Item 2 3. Item 3
Incorrectly Numbered List	1. Item 1 1. Item 2 1. Item 3	1. Item 1 2. Item 2 3. Item 3
