Format a Secure Note to include BOLD TEXT

I'm in the minority when it comes to notes. I want to ADD bold text, not remove it.  As a new user with a steep learning curve, I'm not using all the capabilities of 1 Password, but enough to make...

    I have solved the mystery. (I think!) Markdown on Windows 11 desktop is only enabled in the first white field of a secure note. "The text here says: add any notes about this item here." I've filled it green. 

    For additional notes which contain filters such as text, URL etc.; these do not support markdown. I've shown it with a green arrow. I'm happy now. 

    Should there be more nuance or information. I'm all ears.

AJCxZO, 

Thank you. I will have to play around with this, because sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. It may be spacing errors on my part or something simple I've overlooked or don't understand quite yet. 

I appreciate the links for reference.

Thanks for the assist, AJCxZ0!

Tyrone2, if you'd like, I can also submit a feature request for additional formatting functionality for secure notes. Just let me know!

    I experimented per AJCxZ0​  suggestions and ended up with no functionality. This is curious because the way I discovered words in Notes COULD be bold was by accident. Therefore, I knew I had to find a way to repeat it.

    Asterisk asterisk phone number asterisk, asterisk just showed everything as is. I'm not putting in the sign because here, it works GREAT! 

    The point is: for those of us who want just a little ability to make certain items stand out from a lot of text, it would be very helpful. It took me about a year to be convinced to use 1Password, and another year to scratch the surface of the functions. Using it as a repository for log ins, notes has made a significant improvement in my digital life. Now I can't imagine being without it. 

    Thanks for the support.
