Advice on making a bulleted list

There doesn't seem to be an easy way in FCE to make a list like in Word where it's just one click and it automatically inputs the bullet for each list item. How would any of you recommend achieving this effect? thanks!

FCE is not a word processor it is a post production tool...
Option A) Use livetype, a little bit fiddlely but effective.
Option B) Use keynote (or something similar) less fiddlely and flashier options (it does have background transparency for easier compositing - mind you i haven't done this personally though) and export as a movie so FCE can import it.
Option C anyone?

  • How to reduce space between paragraphs in bullet list

    I am making a bullet list and I got it to work using CSS up to a point. The problem is that I need to put paragraph breaks between the bullet items and those paragraph breaks are huge, so my list is all spread out vertically. How do I make a break that is smaller, like a fraction of a line, but still keeps the bullet point set up?
    Here is the URL http://www.williambellomy.com/Amenities.html
    Thanks

    That's your table structure for the list at the bottom, which will explain the different spacing. The first list is all in one cell.
    I see you've got list items in separate cells on other pages too - it's not the most reliable way to do it. Keep your list together and use the margin attribute in your style sheets.

  • Creating Custom Bullets & Lists in Pages 5.0

    I cannot figure out how to create a custom numbered list in Pages 5.0. I had custom LISTS on my 4.3 Docs that did not migrate to 5.0. How do I create duplicate LIST STYLE in 5.0?
    Thank you for your help.

    On the format menu on the right side, there is the font section, alignment section, spacing section, and bullets & lists section. Next to the bullets & lists section is a drop-down menu of preset lists. At the top-right of this menu is a plus sign. Clicking on this will allow you to create a new list in that menu and title it. From there, you will have to manually create your custom list change the type of bullets (numbers, roman numerals, letters, etc.) -- you might need to click on the disclosure triangle to the left of the bullets & lists title to see this part. When you finish with your custom list, there will be an asterik next to the title of the list, and if you click on that title, the drop-down menu will open up again and you can hit "Update" next to your list name. This should save the style for that custom list. Here is the most important part: When you have finished making this list, make sure you save the document as a template and select that template if you ever want to use that list. I have found that a custom list in a document (saved or deleted) that is not made into a template does not carry over into other documents. Setting up this custom list may take a while, but hopefully it will work and make things easier. I hope this makes sense, and let me know if you cannot understand something. Hopefully this picture will help too.

  • How to justify the text of a bulleted list

    Does anyone know if it is possible to justify the text of a bulleted list in the same way as for a paragraph? I can do it in Microsoft Word but I can't seem to do it in Illustrator.
    When I justify the text of a paragraph in Illustrator it works perfectly fine. But when I do it for bulleted text, it gets all weird. Can anyone offer any advice? I'd greatly appreciate it!

    The only solution I'm seeing is this older post from CS3 that directs you to use the inDesign text engine.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/467763
    Typographically having a bullet list aligned other then flush left rag right seems unnatural. I would like if you could post a screen shot of the Word doc that is aligned the way you envision your text aligning in Illustrator.

  • XML assign style for numbered and bullet lists

    Hi,
    This is kinda a continuation from my previous thread. I understand that XSLT has to be used to transform the previous elements to be able to use ID paragraph styles. I would think the same would have to be acoomplished for lists.
    Is it possible with paragraph styles to generate the same results as a list in HTML? Or would I have to create individual paragraph styles for each nested list?
    I hope I'm making sense.
    Like:
    <h5>Nested unordered list</h5>
    <li1>bullet list</li1>
    <li1>bullet list</li1>
    <li2>bullet list</li2>
    <li2>bullet list</li2>
    <li3>bullet list</li3>
    <li3>bullet list</li3>
    <li4>bullet list</li4>
    <li4>bullet list</li4>
    Sample HTML:
    <h5>Nested unordered list</h5>
    <ul>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    <ul>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    <ul>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    <ul>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    <li>bullet list</li>
    </ul>
    </ul>
    </ul>
    </ul>
    <h5>Nested ordered list</h5>
    <ol>
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <ol type="a">
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <ol type="i">
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <ol type="A">
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <ol type="I">
    <li>ordered list</li>
    <li>ordered list</li>
    </ol>
    </ol>
    </ol>
    </ol>

    I think the best way is to create a new paragraph style for each nested level.
    Example:
    Create a new style for each sub level.
    Text here
    Text here
    Sub level 1
    Sub level 1
    Thanks...

  • Bulleted List within a Grid Panel

  • The bullet list, numbered list and the normal text is not converting when I am converting from RH 9 to MS Word 2010

    Hi all,
    Greetings for the day
    I am created a new CSS in Robohelp 9. I have also created a new template in Word 2010. The style sets for different information elements like (Heading, bullets, body text, ) are more or less same between the CSS and the new templates. I am also able to map the .css styles to Word template when I am converting from RH to Word as I am getting the necessary option in the drop-down list.
    However, when the output is generated, the bullet, the numbered list and the body text is not converting at all. The body text works sometimes. However, the numbered list and bullet list is coming out as images.
    If anybody knows the solution, I can share the .css and Word template.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Parag Deb

    Create a new project with two or three topics containing lists of both types. Generate a printed output that shows the problem. Then zip it up and send it to me. See the Contact page on my site for instructions.

  • Bullets & lists (Korean)

    When I try to add an additional item in Korean in the "Bullets & Lists", the bullet symbol disappears.
    Is there any possible solution for this problem?

    If you put the cursor in a text box, you have those options; they represent a kind of formatting that isn't available in a cell of a table.
    You can type a bullet into a cell manually, of course.

  • Bullets & Lists disabled

    Does anyone know how to enable Bullets & Lists in Numbers 3.1? When I go to the "Inspector", i.e., Format --> Text, all the control components within the Bullets and Lists section are disabled (i.e., grayed-out).  Does anyone know a way to enable them?

  • Bulleted Lists in Text Boxes?

    Hi all,
    Apologies if this has been asked before - I've searched but to no avail.
    Can one, in a text document, have a bulleted list in a text box? I've tried, but when the text to be bulleted in the text box is selected, the toolbar and the 'Format' drop-down menu changes and the 'Bullets On/Off' button is not available.
    I've tried customising the toolbars (which I feel I shouldn't have to do anyway), but this doesn't work. I've tried to cut and paste in bulletted points from normal text (which I feel I shouldn't have to do either) but this doesn't work either.
    Any suggestions, or is this a bug/feature?
    With thanks,
    Sean.

    If you mean the text function in the drawing toolbar, it isn't possible.
    You should use frames.

  • How can I create a bulleted list where each line builds in independently?

    I would like to make a bulleted list in my video where each bullet fades in as the person says them in the video (it is not at a constant rate). So far the only way I've accomplished this is to stack 6 or 7 of the 'Fade' title generators on top of eachother and adjust the length of them to match the audio. It seems like there must be a better way to do this as this solution is quite combersum when trying to align all the bullets (wish there was a bullet format in the text formatting box) and it uses a lot of computing power to make adjustments on so many generators. Thanks.

    I am sure there is a way to do this in FCP or Motion. However, what I do is to build my bulleted list in Keynote against a green background. Set up the Keynote presentation as 1920x1080.
    I then use it in FCP or iMovie as a greenscreen effect.
    After creating the bullets in Keynote, I export them as a QuickTIme Movie with a timed advance. I then import the QuickTime movie and edit it as I need it.
    Keynote has dozens of text effects and builds, including the fade that you need.
    Here is a quick and dirty sample.

  • How do I format bullet lists in the Notes tab?

    I have a transcript of the audio narration in the Notes section of my source PowerPoint slides. When I publish with Adobe Presenter, these transcripts appear in the Notes tab in the published course. However, when I publish my course, any bullet lists that I may have formatted in the Notes view in PowerPoint, do not format correctly in the published course. The text of the bullets is there, but the bullet formatting is missing.
    I am using Adobe Presenter 8, PowerPoint 2007, and I'm running on Windows 7 Professional. I have tried saving my PowerPoint file in the PPTX format and in the older PPT format. Neither retains the bullet-list formatting in the published course.
    Is there a trick to getting lists to format correctly in the Notes tab?

  • Cannot figure out why my bullet lists aren't correctly aligned

    Hello,
    I hope someone can help me on this because I'm totally lost. I've spend hours trying to figure out where the problem comes from, reading posts on-line, searching documentation, etc. and I'm getting nowhere. I'm struggling with bulleted lists which just won't aligned correctly with text paragraphs. I would expect the bullet to be horizontally aligned with previous/next paragraphs and the list text to be indented so that the bullet stands out to the left. Kind of almost the default one gets when creating a simple <ul> list without any formatting.
    This problem can be seen here. The bullets are outside their div. I've tried using "list-type-position: inside" on <ul> and/or <li>—this gets the bullets back inside the div but then the text isn't properly indented with respect to the bullet.
    I assume I've got some CSS precedence problem, but I can't find out where it is. I've validated my code with Dreamweaver CS4 + browser compatibility check. There are some issues left which I'm working on, but as far as I understand they shouldn't be related to this list problem. The only other parts where I'm using unordered lists are the top and side menus, but I've used explicit descendant selectors (I think) to avoid spreading my styling to other elements. Where am I wrong??
    I'm still new to HTML/CSS and learning, so be tolerant with my mistakes! I'm aware that I still have got tons to learn.
    Emilie

    Have you tried giving your ul a left margin with css,
    e.g.
    ul {
    margin-left: 1em;
    You can also use negative values to move it the other way.

  • Want to change a bulleted list to a checkbox list -- HELP

    Why is this so hard? I have a list of software product features, I want the list to have checkboxes rather than bullets so readers will feel urge to check off features when comparing software to other solutions. DOESNT HAVE TO BE INTERACTIVE. Just a visual. Just a G&*$^#*!)*%! checkbox. I have spent a half hour trying to find a solution to this SIMPLE F9823769 thing. Why so difficult? Wasting of time ion simple tasks not happy. On CC (online) version 9, not on a Mac so don't assume it. Thanks for help

    Or, Alt click the the Bulleted List icon, List Type/Bullets, Bullet Character/Add and look for the checkbox. Then you'll have it as an option to apply when need it.

  • Why are spaces missing at end of wrapped lines in bulleted lists

    Hi -
    Acrobat 11.0.10, Word 2013, Windows 7 ... Sometimes tagged PDFs don't have spaces at the end of wrapping lines in bulleted lists, throughout the document. In text edit mode the cursor movement indicates no space exists. Selecting with text touch-up shows no space. In accessible text the last word on line runs into first word on next line.  JAWS mis-pronounces those words as if they are one word.  PAC preview also shows the words running together. 
    Adding a space in text edit mode works for a few minutes, but when file is saved & reopened spaces are gone, even if, immediately after adding the spaces, I select the block of LBody text with text touch-up and re-tag it and initially spaces appear to have been added.
    Is starting to happen on a routine basis, different source files, different people/computers generating the PDFs, multiple computer reboots, Acrobat repair run, MS Office repair run. But not consistent ... e.g., if someone generated PDF with no spaces at end, someone else can generate from same source and spaces are present.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Thanks 'C' student, nice to know it's not just us - "misery loves company" and all that.
    So far besides your reply there's deafening silence.
    Come on, folks, don't any of you experts have a solution for this? Or at least an inkling of an idea what may be causing this? It's starting to happen all the time now, becoming a major problem.  We may have to start by getting Acrobat to self-tag rather than starting with the tags generated from the source programs, but that adds time and effort because Acrobat's tags for our often complex documents are laughable and have, ironically, such poor syntax.
    Is there a way to get a discussion seen by more people?
