actualNoteContentPart: The forward slash menu in Amplenote works on every platform, allowing context-aware suggestions for a range of different commands. The slash menu can be triggered by:
  Entering a forward slash after a space
  Entering a forward slash at the beginning of a line
  Selecting text then pressing forward slash
  For example, when you press the slash menu in a paragraph, [you'll get options like these](https://images.amplenote.com/c919d564-6509-11f0-acb0-a5ec0cafe2a4/bfb4fc3b-a190-4b2b-9b28-f2f6ff54c5aa.gif) , whereas when your cursor in a task, you'll see [task-relevant options instead](https://images.amplenote.com/c919d564-6509-11f0-acb0-a5ec0cafe2a4/000f128c-8ae2-4b29-9b02-a3968578cd53.gif) .
  
  Let's review the different categories of functionality that the slash menu unlocks. Note that these do not include the multitude of commands that get added by [Amplenote's 100+ plugins](https://amplenote.com/plugins) . If there is an Amplenote feature that is not connected to a slash command with the terminology you would expect, feel free to suggest new commands (or aliases of existing commands) to our support email.
