# Composer Features
 | 
						|
## Auto Complete
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 - Hitting tab tries to auto-complete the word before the caret as a room member
 | 
						|
    - If no matching name is found, a visual bell is shown
 | 
						|
 - @ + a letter opens auto complete for members starting with the given letter
 | 
						|
    - When inserting a user pill at the start in the composer, a colon and space is appended to the pill
 | 
						|
    - When inserting a user pill anywhere else in composer, only a space is appended to the pill
 | 
						|
 - # + a letter opens auto complete for rooms starting with the given letter
 | 
						|
 - : open auto complete for emoji
 | 
						|
 - Pressing arrow-up/arrow-down while the autocomplete is open navigates between auto complete options
 | 
						|
 - Pressing tab while the autocomplete is open goes to the next autocomplete option,
 | 
						|
    wrapping around at the end after reverting to the typed text first.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Formatting
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 - When selecting text, a formatting bar appears above the selection.
 | 
						|
 - The formatting bar allows to format the selected test as:
 | 
						|
    bold, italic, strikethrough, a block quote, and a code block (inline if no linebreak is selected).
 | 
						|
 - Formatting is applied as markdown syntax.
 | 
						|
 - Hitting ctrl/cmd+B also marks the selected text as bold
 | 
						|
 - Hitting ctrl/cmd+I also marks the selected text as italic
 | 
						|
 - Hitting ctrl/cmd+> also marks the selected text as a blockquote
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Misc
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 - When hitting the arrow-up button while having the caret at the start in the composer,
 | 
						|
    the last message sent by the syncing user is edited.
 | 
						|
 - Clicking a display name on an event in the timeline inserts a user pill into the composer
 | 
						|
 - Emoticons (like :-), >:-), :-/, ...) are replaced by emojis while typing if the relevant setting is enabled
 | 
						|
 - Typing in the composer sends typing notifications in the room
 | 
						|
 - Pressing ctrl/mod+z and ctrl/mod+y undoes/redoes modifications
 | 
						|
 - Pressing shift+enter inserts a line break
 | 
						|
 - Pressing enter sends the message.
 | 
						|
 - Choosing "Quote" in the context menu of an event inserts a quote of the event body in the composer.
 | 
						|
 - Choosing "Reply" in the context menu of an event shows a preview above the composer to reply to.
 | 
						|
 - Pressing alt+arrow up/arrow down navigates in previously sent messages, putting them in the composer. |
