# Blocks & Editor
|
|
|
|
Your object is made up of different types of blocks to organize your information, and the place where all of these Blocks live together is called the Canvas. Anytype's block-based editor works very similarly to that of blogging sites or website builders.
|
|
|
|
All block styles originate from the command menu, which you can access by either clicking on the orange `+` symbol on the left-hand side of your editor, or typing `/`. 
|
|
|
|
From here, you'll see more than twenty different block-types you can add to your object.

### Style your Blocks
|
|
|
|
You can select one block or several at once, and batch edit to create different headings and text styles such as checkboxes, bullets, or numbers.

|
### Inline Styling  
|
|
|
|
We also support styling individual characters / words inside text blocks.

|
### Drag & Drop to Format
|
|
|
|
You can use the orange 'handle' to the left of each block to create parent/child blocks or new columns in your editor.

|
|
|
|
### Embed Blocks
|
|
|
|
Simply type /embed in the editor to pull up a menu of currently supported embeds.
|
|
|
|
Some examples include: Mermaid diagrams, Youtube videos, Miro boards, Google Maps, and several more.
|
|
|
|
Some file types can also be embedded: audio, video, image and pdf.
