I use code blocks in a slightly non-standard way to show data in an easy to read format. The mono based font is really easy on the eyes.
Something that is slightly time consuming is that if I want a formula inside a code block I have to first make it outside of the code block and then drag it inside.
Please please please could I just hit = and it starts writing a formula for me?
Hi @Harry_Roper 
!
I’m sorry but why not just select what you wrote on the canvas and then apply the code block formatting ?
That’s easier than drag n’ drop …
@Pch Thanks for the tip! I’ll be using this !
It’s still one extra step rather than just writing directly in the code block. I guess I want to move faster than having to drag → select code block. This is especially true for updating or editing exisiting UI.
I understand 
… I just thought this could help .
There’s also a keyboard shortcut to trigger the code block formatting:
⌘ cmd + ⇧ shift + , on Mac I guess (
) …
So for Windows that would probably be ⌃ ctrl + ⇧ shift + ,
… but I never used it because it triggers something else in Chrome (from my side of the screen) instead of applying the format 
…
Edit: You would still need to select what you wrote before though Thanks Paul ! 
…
Actually no, Ctrl+Shift+, on my Windows machine toggles code block formatting for the line (paragraph) the cursor is in, no need to select anything. Just place the cursor, do the hotkey, press = and enter the formula, do the hotkey again.
TIL.
Thanks for testing this out and for the insight @Paul_Danyliuk 
… which, now that I think about what I wrote previously, not having to select anything makes perfect sense 
…
