Hi there! Is there any way I could put some text or figures in the spotlight? Maybe with formulas? I wanted to make a page that summarizes the key indicators of a process, but I couldn’t find a way to write a big number at the top without using the Hn because it appears in the outline… Thanks for your advices 😃 ---

Hi @Aurelie_Pureur! We have something in the works to make this easier, but in the meanwhile, one option is to use **code block** formatting, as well as canvas columns. ![Screen Cast 2022-08-15 at 12.10.04 AM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/coda1/original/3X/8/b/8beaaf45bf620bb90c044e391452d8601313e225.gif) Here’s an awesome example from Community member @Jono_Bouwmeester: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/coda1/original/3X/f/e/fe1433ca4bb5c13a44d2c3dc3ed0ea84e4d3d189.png) His doc has all kinds of complex UI tricks you can use in Coda - feel free to check it out! > **[Can you keep a secret?](https://coda.io/@jonobobo/can-you-keep-a-secret)** > > This doc introduces a few techniques to implement encryption in Coda. ---

And here’s how to achieve the same outline effect but with a regular (not the “code block”) font: > [@Mini tip: Outlined (code) blocks with regular font](https://connect.superhuman.com/t/mini-tip-outlined-code-blocks-with-regular-font/30883): > > Update: Do this with callouts now: Old answer for historic reason: I think I’ve seen this trick in @Scott_Collier-Weir’s docs — making nice outlined blocks for drawing extra attention. To draw such block, one would use Code Block paragraph style. The problem with it is that it forces all the text in the block to have monospace font (see left). [image] The solution: use formulas and put all the text there. The style of text in formulas will override the “outer” style forced by the block (se… ---
