Bullet Using Different Font than Body Text

I would like to have a bullet that uses a different font than the body text. Say, for text I use Verdana, and for the bullet I would like to use a glyph from Zapf Dingbats. I seem to not be able to figure out how to set this up -- the bullet always uses the same font as the text.
Thanks for your help.

If you Option-Click on the bullet character, you can select it on its own, separate from the body text. You can then apply whatever font you want, and in the Text Inspector, in the Bullets palette, you can type whatever character you want in the Text Bullets field. (If you want this character for all of your bullets, it would be easiest to do this editing on the slide masters, rather than the individual slides.)

  • Using different fonts

    Whe I edit a form, how can i use different font and chance once for all form?

    Select all the fields, then right-click one of them and go to Properties and change that option. It will be applied to all selected fields.
    Then you can right-click one of them and select "Use current properties as new defaults" so that new fields you create will have that font already selected for them.

  • Spark TextInput -  use different fonts

    Is it possible to use two fonts for a text entered into TextInput?
    For example, 12345678 ?
    Thanks

    Form man urxvt;
    -fn fontlist
    Select the fonts to be used. This is a comma separated list of font names that are checked in order when trying to find glyphs for characters. The first font defines the cell size for characters; other fonts might be smaller, but not (in general) larger. A (hopefully) reasonable default font list is always appended to it. See resource font for more details.
    In short, to specify an X11 core font, just specify its name or prefix it with "x:". To specify an XFT-font, you need to prefix it with "xft:", e.g.:
    urxvt -fn "xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:pixelsize=15"
    urxvt -fn "9x15bold,xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono"
    I use it all the time.

  • Documents have different default languages for comments than body text

    Greetings. I am a teacher and sometimes the documents I get from my students appear to have two default languages. For example, the body text will be in English, but when I try to leave a comment in the margin, Pages '09 thinks I am typing in French. What is happening here? I can open inspector and change the default language back to English, but this has to be done for EVERY comment, since "Select All" will only work within an individual comment OR the whole body text...not both.

    Changing the language for some text only changes it for that text. It is not a universal setting.
    Language is part of the text just like bolding or the font.
    What you need to do is change the style that is attached to the comments. Select all the text in a comment and change that to English:
    Menu > View > Show Styles Drawer > a style will be selected > click on the arrow next to the style and update the style
    This will apply to the styles in that particular document.
    I am curious what your circumstances are that the students have different language settings set. Are you in Canada? Or are you teaching a French language class?

  • Splitting of text fields when using multiple fonts within a text field and exporting it to XFL.

    Hi All,
    I have been trying out  InDesign and exported files to XFL for use in Flash. If I use a single font for a text box then everything looks fine in flash, but if  I use multiple fonts for the same text box its split into multiple text boxes. For making this more clear I have attached an image.
    Any help to resolve this!!!

    Paragraph styles are tied to the paragraph, not the page.
    You don't say which version you are using, but here's something you could try in CS3 or CS4. Set up a baseline grid in the preferences to match the main pages. The spacing should match the leading of the body text. Make a special paragraph style (you can base it on the body text style) that you will apply to text onthe chapter start page, and as part of that style set it to align to baseline grid. Now for the trick. Select the  text frame onthe start page and define a custom baseline grid with the spacing you want. Save it as an object style, too, while you're at it. The strating text should align to the custom grid on the start page and the documetn grid on the next page.

  • Can I show different fonts and colors text on 1 multi-line text fields?

    I want to format different messages on 1 mutli-line field with different fonts and colors for the heading lines. Can I do that in Forms 6i ?

    You must use in trigger Post-query the sentence:
    Example:
    DECLARE
    cur_itm VARCHAR2(80);
    cur_block VARCHAR2(80) := :System.Cursor_Block;
    BEGIN
    cur_itm := Get_Block_Property( cur_block, FIRST_ITEM );
    WHILE ( cur_itm IS NOT NULL ) LOOP
    cur_itm := cur_block||'.'||cur_itm;
    Set_Item_Instance_Property( cur_itm, CURRENT_RECORD,
    VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'My_Favorite_Named_Attribute');
    cur_itm := Get_Item_Property( cur_itm, NEXTITEM );
    END LOOP;
    END;

  • Using different fonts in flash

    Ok so im using some very different fonts in my flash file. I
    know most people wont have the fonts ** 5 min pause had to answer a
    911 call of a foot bleeding excessively,** ok where was I? oh yeah
    my fonts. Ok so my fonts are so strange that no one else will have
    them. I noticed that they do not see the same fonts as me. I
    figured in flash that the fonts would be included in the swf making
    the fonts visible the say way i inteded them to be. Let me know if
    there is a way to make the fonts look the same as i want them to
    without converting them to gif or jpg

    There is an option to embed the font in your flash movie.
    That will fix your
    problem. I'm not at home so I can't include screenshot, but
    I'm sure if you
    google "embed fonts in flash" you'll find details on how to
    do it.

  • Why does firefox want to use different fonts on mounted hard drives

    This happens for both of my external hard drives. It gives me the options: Show in Finder Don't Allow or Allow. I have tried all 3 and neither solves the problem.

  • How to use different font styles in the same boolean text?

    Hi all,
    As reported here http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/6BD344ACA4DEE20A8625692700737E16, it is possible to change font color, size or other font properties of a subtext in a string indicator. This can be applied to a caption too.
    I'd like to apply this properties to a boolean text but it does not work. The boolean control has the Text.selectionStart and End property node but it does not appear to function.
    Can you help me?
    Thanks all

    This is a bug in the development environment (I think it showed up around LV8).
    There's a workaround, but it seems to work intermittently: Place some floating text on your front panel, then edit it's font styles.  Select and copy the floating text.  Select the boolean text (double click on it).  Paste.

  • Different fonts in same text item....

    Hi Everyone,
    We have a requirement that we should use more than one font in the same text item. We have shortcut to toggle between the fonts (if you are familiar its NUDI used for Kannada Font). So we should make it possible that they can edit both kannada and english in the same field. And, after toggling between the fonts, previously added data should not change.
    Thanks in advance,
    Yathish

    For any fonts you will use you OAS must support it, but as I said in my previous post, you cannot have two different types of fonts in the same text item natively.
    It may be possible if you use a PJC.
