What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

My husband and I had been looking forward to retirement for several years. We had so many plans. We were going to travel the country in an RV and see all the areas that we hadn’t been able to visit when were busy in our careers.

But then my husband suddenly passed away and I was left all alone. Sure there were the kids but they were busy with their own children and careers and I didn’t want to be an imposition.

So I pretended to be fine but in reality, I started to dread each new day. I was so bored. There was nothing to do but putter around the house or watch TV.

I started dusting and vacuuming daily just to give myself something to do. My house was immaculate but inside I felt like a mess.

My days were boring and depressing and they were filled with the same drudgery day after day.

This continued for months until at a routine checkup …

My Doctor Told Me I Was on a Path to an Early Death!

He said he could tell that I was depressed and he warned me about “giving up on life.”

He said when seniors do that they become much more likely to get sick and die.

He urged me to take up hobbies, to become more active, to get reengaged with life.

He asked me what I liked to do.

After struggling to find an answer, I remembered painting. It’s something that I loved to do when I was younger but that I gave up as my life got busy with kids and work.

Well, now that I was retired it was the perfect time to take it back up, he told me.

I Quickly Discovered That Creating Art is Much Different Now Compared to When I Was Younger

When I was a teenager, I bought paints and brushes and painted on an easel in my bedroom. It could be messy sometimes.

But today that has all changed. Now you can draw and paint right on an iPad. No muss, no fuss.

I’m 65 and most people I know are familiar with iPads. Well, what you may not be familiar with is the fact that there is a program called Procreate that lets you create amazing works of art right on your iPad screen.

That’s right, by simply using a stylus you can draw and paint right on your iPad.

This program removes all the potentially frustrating things about painting. For example, instead of using erasers to try to get rid of a mistake to only smudge the area and make it worse, you can just click an undo button and try again.

You can also zoom in and out to create detail and highlights that allow your art to truly stand out.

One more great thing about creating art on an iPad with Procreate is that you don’t have to buy brushes, watercolors, and quality paper that can set you back $200 or more per purchase.

By using Procreate on iPad you can draw and create new works of art without ever having to worry about running out of supplies.

Thanks to My Renewed Interest in Art, I Found Myself Looking Forward to the Next Day …

Where before I almost dreaded waking up in the morning, now thanks to painting I was eager to get up and create something new.

Before I had begun to feel so old and tired but now I was energized. My days had meaning and my confidence began to increase.

I joined a local art group and made several friends – some my age, some younger and some older.

It was fun talking about art with my new friends. I enjoyed sharing my new creations with them and I also enjoyed seeing theirs.

I had rediscovered the amazing ability of art to inspire and satisfy. My life was completely changed. In fact, I firmly believe that painting saved my life. It gave me a reason to go on. It enabled me to have fun again.

Just Look at What Can be Accomplished on an iPad:

Few Things Are Better for Long-Term Mental & Physical Health Than Creating Art!

Creating art can do wonders for your health. That’s why art therapy has become so popular these days – especially for seniors.

In a scientific article entitled “Effectiveness of Art Therapy With Adult Clients in 2018—What Progress Has Been Made?” which was published on the National Library of Medicine website, researchers found art therapy had numerous benefits for seniors.

Principale

Benefits associated with regularly creating art include an improved emotional state, reduced risk of dementia and greater maintenance of fine motor skills.

The researchers said their “findings suggest that art therapy seems to have a beneficial effect on older individuals who are coping with a variety of challenges in their lives ...”

The study presents the latest 27 studies in the field that examine the effectiveness of art therapy with adult clients and divides them into seven clinical categories:

  • Cancer patients
  • Clients coping with a variety of medical conditions
  • Mental health clients
  • Clients coping with trauma
  • Prison inmates
  • The elderly
  • Clients who have not been diagnosed with specific issues but face ongoing daily challenges
