Curly Brackets for Monospace Text

[Deleted user]

After we got a notification that our cloud confluence was upgraded, the markdown for inline monospace stopped working. I used to be able to use {{test}} to make that word monospaced. Is this gone for good?

Hi David,

With the new editor, monospace is done with backticks. Example:

`this will display as monospace text`

A few other changes are included in the new editor so please click the question mark in the top-right to review the new formatting and any shortcut changes:

I hope this is clear but do let us know if you have any additional questions.

Regards,

Shannon

No problem, David!

Take care.

Kind regards,

For some reason the backticks don't work when the first backtick is preceded by an opening parenthesis.

@yerkan,

You can try typing ( SPACE `monospace text` and then go back and remove the space, or use the keyboard shortcuts instead:

• Command + Shift + M (Mac)
• Control + Shift + M (PC) 

I believe that this is probably expected behavior, but I am verifying with the developers to be sure.

Hi Yagiz,

I did receive verification that without putting a space before the first back-tick that the monospace will indeed not work. So you will need to pad your monospace text with spaces, or use the keyboard shortcut.

Thank you for your understanding!
