ID

Assigns an ID to your selection. The ID pop-up menu (if applicable) lists all of the document’s unused, declared

IDs.

selection, the pop-up menu shows No CSS Style. If multiple styles have been applied to the selection, the menu is
blank.

the blockquote tag. In a list, indenting creates a nested list and removing the indentation unnests the list.

drag the Point-To-File icon to a file in the Files panel; or drag a file from the Files panel into the box.
