Could use help with the search function

Hi all,

I have a few questions on the search function in Marked I could use help with. The first is how can I dismiss the search bar once I have called it up? The Marked Help doesn't mention it. Using ⌘-F doesn't do it for me nor does any other key combination work that I have found.

The second question has to do with a small coding change I need help with. I currently am a fan of the Kult CSS style from Peter Sziebig (who I will also contact about this). I fumble my way through some CSS coding, but can anyone tell me where in the Kult css coding I can change the spacing along the top of the preview? Currently the search bar hides the first line of my text in the Kult css (see attachment). I plan on simply copying the spacing from the Grump CSS style and pasting it into Kult, but what little I've attempted has changed more of the border spacing than I would have liked.

Could someone take me by the hand and tell me which coding line will effect only the top margin of Kult? Would it be an addition of 'padding-top' code (or margin?) to the section below

body { padding-left: 6rem;
>padding-right: 6rem;
>margin-left: auto;
>margin-right: auto;
>max-width: 42rem;
>display: block;

I appreciate the help.

   The search bar works just like any OS X find bar, type Escape to dismiss it while it's focused. If you've clicked out of it, type ⌘F, then escape.

   Top margin can be added in a few ways. The easiest is to add margin-top or padding-top to the #wrapper element.

   #wrapper {
       padding-top: 50px;
   }
   

   I can't guarantee results on other people's styles, but that should work.

   Thanks Brett.

   I can imagine you shaking your head at that first question – so simple and I've been using Macs for years. :) I'm not sure I've ever used ESC shortcut for exiting a Find search. Usually I've clicked a "done" button or it's been a separate, closeable Search/Find window. Lesson learned.

   The #wrapper code worked perfectly.

   I appreciate the solid support once again. Enjoy your New Year's holiday.

   I'm so used to being keyboard-centric I didn't think about a close button… I'll fix that.

   Sounds good. I'm getting to be more and more keyboard centric, but Find functions have recently become more useful and a bigger part of my workflow than before, so I just hadn't come across the need for ESC shortcut yet.
