Setting NameTypeDescription
PositionaltextThe shortcut of the snippet to import (what you type to insert the snippet, not the snippet's label)
General Command Settings
trimyes/no/left/rightIf yes whitespace is removed before and after the command. If left, only whitespace to the left is removed. If right, only whitespace to the right is removed.

The {import} command can be used to combine snippets and reuse common parts of snippets. Form fields with the same name will be linked across the combined snippet.

The shortcut you use in the import command should be the shortcut text you actually type in to insert the snippet, not the snippet's descriptive label.

If the shortcut contains characters that have special meaning in Text Blaze commands (";", "=", "{" and "}"), you will need to escape them by placing a backslash before each special character.

For example, if your snippet shortcut is ";go;", you can import it with "{import: \;go\;}".

Learn more about escaping characters, by visiting the Formula Reference.

There are a few caveats when using the {snippet} command together with the {import} command. Click here to learn more.
