This article explains how to use the Callout Block in Momenta to highlight important information inside a content object. Callouts are used to draw attention to specific text using visual formatting such as borders, larger text, and bold styling.

Use & Purpose

The Callout block is designed to make important messages stand out in a content object. It wraps the text in a bordered container, enlarges the font, and applies bold formatting.

Common use cases:

Highlighting key instructions
Emphasizing deadlines or due dates
Drawing attention to safety tips or best practices

Callout Layout Types

When inserting a Callout block, you’ll be prompted to select one of the following layout options:

Basic: A standalone callout centered across the content width
With Secondary Text (Float Right 30%): Text box on the left, callout takes up 30% on the right
With Secondary Text (Float Right 40%): Same layout, but callout spans 40% of the right side
With Secondary Text (Float Right 50%): Equal-width layout—callout and text each take up half the screen

This floating layout allows authors to display contextual explanation next to a highlighted message.

Configuration Settings

Insert a Callout Block from the content editor's block menu
In the configuration panel, choose your layout type from the dropdown
Enter your content using the rich text editor (text, links, formatting allowed)
Click Save and then Publish the content object

Note: Callout blocks are not interactive — they are purely for visual emphasis.
