Creating a divider in Notion by typing three dashes

Dividers are a simple way to organize sections and make long Notion pages easier to read. Instead of adding a divider manually from the block menu, you can create one instantly with a keyboard shortcut.

Here’s how:

  1. Go to a new line on any Notion page.

  2. Type three dashes (---).

  3. Notion will automatically turn them into a divider.

Quick Tip: Use dividers between major sections of a page to create visual separation without adding unnecessary complexity.
