Extra Features
Page Break
You need a Page break macro when you want to move to the beginning of the next page in your exported document. Without this macro, it is not possible to manage where the next page starts. Page break macro will help you to control the content and make it more organized when exported.
Optics - Page Break works only with the native Confluence export feature.
Please follow these steps to insert a Page Break macro on a Confluence page:
Navigate to the Confluence page you wish to edit or create a new page.
Once in edit mode, either click the plus icon in the navigation bar (insert elements) or press '/' on your keyboard to bring up the macro list.
Type "Optics" in the search bar, then choose the Page Break macro from the options displayed.
Click Save to add the button to your Confluence page. If you decide not to proceed, clicking Cancel will cancel the setup without inserting the macro.
Page Rating
Ratings are an invaluable source of feedback and a great tool to increase user engagement and interaction. People use ratings to decide whether they should or should not download an app, buy a product or book a hotel. Page rating report macro will improve the content quality and attract users to read more.
Before you start using the page rating feature, it should be enabled in the app settings. By default, this macro is disabled. Users will see an option to rate the page in the page header next to the edit button.

Automated Numbered Headings
Headings and subheadings represent the key concepts and supporting ideas on the page. Headings are generally more prominent than subheadings, and they both convey levels of importance. Headers tell us about the following content and make it easier to read and focus on what matters to you.
In large documents, it is useful and time-saving to have Automated Numbered Headings. Imagine how much time your team spends updating numbered headings within pages, especially when more employees create.
