How can I properly add a line of code in a comment like this
test test
I like it more grey than test test if that is possible.
Or if there is another way to define code in a comment to make it more clear I'd like to hear it.

In comments you are limited to just test test which is generated by the code:
`test test`
There is no way to get the larger code bar like in your example or in the line above this in a comment. This is because the comment system doesn't work at all with line breaks, etc. which the code bars like the above need.

I think it can be generalized, there are no format options to control line breaks or paragraphs, which also makes code blocks impossible and allows only inline code.– Byte Commander ModCommented Feb 18, 2018 at 0:15

Is there a way to add it another way ? bold or italic or more darker background– An0nCommented Feb 18, 2018 at 0:15

@An0n why? Adding that effect is just going to be more 'nuisance-like' to others rather than just be a straight
code line. If you're trying to share that much code that you need a code bar like in the question in a comment, you're doing it wrong.– Thomas Ward ModCommented Feb 18, 2018 at 0:17 -
I just see when other people for example set ` sudo apt-get update ` i see it more clear then when i wrote the same comment. Thats why im asking. And offcourse if i add allot of code i just answer the question.– An0nCommented Feb 18, 2018 at 0:20

1@An0n Then that's an issue with how you see it. It looks pretty clear on this side... unfortunately. It's pretty clearly not standard comment code on the standard site stylesheets– Thomas Ward ModCommented Feb 18, 2018 at 0:47
