Center bullet points vertically with text

CS6 in Windows 7. I've made a custom bullet point that's a square, but it is vertically aligned with the bottom of the first line of text instead of to the center of the first line of text. How do I shift the bullet point up so it's aligned with the center of  the first line of text?
Here's how it is now.
Thanks.
Mark

You can create a character style to apply to the bullet that adds baseline shift, or since you say this is a custom bullet, you could remake the bullet, and push it higher in relation to the line when you make (which is a more universal solution).

  • Is it possible to get the my searchengines back vertical with text as it always was, instead of seeing only the icons ?

    in the menu bar at the top, there's the search bar. I have a lot of searchengines, and they show up when you press on the magnifying glass.
    however since the latest update i guess. I only see the icons of my searchengines.
    Is it possible to get them back vertically with text on the right of the icons. because i had them arranged in a specific order and knew exactly where the click when i performed a specific search.
    now with only icons, it is more difficult because i have to hover over them to see the text which icon wich searchengine is.
    so, i hope i can get them back to show up vertically :) with accompanied text.
    best regards, dinny

    That is the new Search Bar scheme which was introduced in Firefox 34, back in early December.
    You can revert to the former scheme like this.
    Open up '''about:config''' ''(typed in the Location Bar)''
    Right-click and toggle this preference to '''''false'''''
    '''browser.search.showOneOffButtons'''
    Then restart Firefox.

  • How to create bullet points in BoilerPlate 'Text' item...

    Hi,
    I have a requirement of generating a form. In that form there is a static section which contains bullet points. Is there a way to create bullet point in oracle reports.
    I am using paper layout. As output is required in PDF format.
    Thanks

    Hi Arshad
    You may try this trick to introduce bullet character in Reports on Windows platform:
    For Boilerplates:
    In Application such as Wordpad, hold Alt and press 0149 on numeric pad. This will insert a bullet mark in the editor. Copy this text and paste it in Reports Paper Layout.
    For Fields:
    Create a formula column (Character type) in the same group as the column that you need to bullet. Return the following result:
    return '� ' || :<your_column>;
    All the values based on this Formula column will display a Bullet mark.
    Hope this helps.
    p.s. character 149 is bullet character in most fonts.
    Regards

  • Bullet point lists  -- with spaces beetween each bullet?

    Hi everyone,
    I was wondering if anyone knew how to set it so that I can make a list of bullet points and have it automatically double space between each bullet point but leaving the text within each point as single spaced.
    I hope this makes sense?
    As far as I can tell, it only allows me to set double spacing for the entire document, not just for each bullet point.
    Would be very grateful if someone could help me tweak this.

    Select your list and then in the Text Inspector, Text tab, increase the "After Paragraph" spacing.

  • Converting Paragraphs into Bullet Points

    Previous to Leopard I was using Microsoft Entourage as my mail client. With the release of Leopard I migrated to Apple Mail. In Entourage you could highlight a series of paragraphs and turn them into bullet points. (I am unsure whether this same feature existed in the Tiger mail application.)
    When I tried to perform this same operation in Leopard Mail it didn't work. I was left with one empty bullet point above the text that had been highlighted. When I tried to fill in that empty bullet point by copying and pasting the text I hoped to use for the first bullet point that initial procedure was successful. However, when I attempted to cut and past the text I hoped to use for the second bullet point the first bullet point and its accompanying text disappeared.
    That was not a good conclusion to my efforts.
    Did Tiger Mail allow you to highlight paragraphs and turn them into bullet points? Is that a capability that has now been lost in Leopard Mail?
    Is there any way in Leopard Mail to convert pre-existing paragraphs of text into bullet points?

    Hello there,
    The steps Zoooot suggested might also work. Post captivate 5 release we have two releases where we fixed/improved lot of issues related to PPTX import. I would also suggest you to download a trial of Captivate 6 and try the PPTX workflow, and let us know your thoughts regarding your usecase.
    Thanks.

  • Has anyone worked out Bullet Point Indentation?

    Lets say i have four bullet point list of text. Some of the text goes on for two or three lines how do you sort this issue of getting them aligned?
    • Sample text here
    • Sample text here
    • Sample text here. This text goes on to
    the second line. So it is not aligned as it should be.
    • Sample text here
    The only way i cold achieve this was to create a second text box which only contains the bullet points and place that next to it. But there has to be an easier way. Anyone?
    Thanks.

    I am not at a computer so I cannot look at your files at the moment and typing code on a smartphone is no fun!So I would do it this way:
    sym.$("button").bind('mouseenter', function(){
    sym.$("button").css({'background-color':'black'});
    sym.$("button").bind('click',function(){
    sym.$("button").css({'background-color':'red'});
    I will look at your files tomorrow. I usually group buttons' code so it is more compact.

  • Animated QuickTime backgrounds with text bullet points over it????

    The bullet point lines would need to animate on screen at the user's interaction (clicking the mouse or pressing arrow key). I tried this in PowerPoint and it didn't work. Every time you hit the arrow key or click the mouse to animate the first bullet point the movie in the background freezes and comes to the front covering the bulleted text.

    yes, you can do this in Keynote. The only issues might be that on some machines, if you are using the presenter layout on your laptop screen, the video will stutter as you build in each bullet. Turning off the presenter tools usually takes care of that. Also, you can't extend the video onto a second slide, so anything you want to build in front of that video must be on THAT slide. Lastly, video currently pauses during a slide transition in Keynote, so even if you do a cross dissolve to the next slide, hoping for a smooth video to video transition, it won't be smooth, the video will freeze as it fades into the next one, which will also be frozen, then the next one will start playing.

  • Undesired bullet pointed text automatically upon creating a new text box

    Hi there! Due to the snow I'm working from home today but I have a little problem back in work that would be nice to get some help on before i go back hopefully tomorrow so i can continue at full speed!
    I'm using Mac OS X (can't remember which version from the top of my head but something quite new!), and InDesign CS3. Basically, every time i create a new text box, or place an excel file into the document (having to do a lot of that at the moment, creating a price guide), it is in bullet point form, and although it's quite easy to go and turn it back off, with me having to do this quite a lot it's getting somewhat frustrating. It does it every single time i create a new text box even if i have turned it off for the previous one
    I'm pretty sure this is going to be one of those "oh, you just need to..." problems with a really simple answer...i hope so anyway!
    Cheers dears!

    Thanks guys, i now seem to have a related problem at home. Here i am using CS2 but working on the same document as at work. I have made sure nothing is selected and set my character and paragraph styles to basic, and hey presto, when i create a text box, all is well. However, when i create a table, and i type in a cell, the bullets return! I have just discovered that turning them off in CS2 doesn't seem to be as simple as CS3 - so firstly - how do i do that?! And secondly - any ideas why it is happening but only in tables?!

  • Bullet point list starting in a line also containing non-bulleted text

    Hi there!
    I have a line of text in iWork Pages separated by a tab, like this:
    Executive Summary: (TAB) This is the first bullet point
    I want the first part of the text ("Exec Summary:") to stay without bullets, but the right part of the text ("This is the first bullet point") to be shown as a bullet point (this list should then be continued in the following lines).
    Any time I highlight the right part of the text and click on "List", the bullet appears in front of the left part, not in front of the right. Any idea?
    Many thanks!

    If you are trying to mix the points within an indented, paragraph you can add a tab to catch the first internal bullet and type option * to get the bullet "•" then another tab to start the indented text.
    To continue with the normal auto bullets after that, make an indented bulleted list with the indent aligning with the tab in the first paragraph.
    All this formatting works off 3 things:
    1. First line indent which in this case is hard left
    2. A tab mid way between the hard left start and
    3. The overall paragraph indent which is further right.
    Exec Summary      •     First Point
                                 •     Second point etc
    Hope this looks right in this post which does not follow normal Word Processing formatting

  • I'm a new Mac user....how can i create a "sticky" with automatically reoccurring bullet points?

    I'm a new Mac user....how can i create a "sticky" with automatically reoccurring bullet points?

    On my previous Mac (long, sad story) I had Office for Mac and liked it a lot.  I was collaberating on some fairly complex legal documents, and never noticed any compatibility problems with Windows Office.  That said, it is expensive.  For most documents, I simply open the Word document in Pages and export it to Word when I am finished.  I sometimes get the message that there is a missing font, but the computer uses a substitute that is quite acceptable.  I have never had someone say that they had difficulty with a document I exported to Word.
    Numbers and Excel aren't as compatible in my experience, and I have gotten some surprises when I hadn't tweaked the settings properly when exporting to Excel.
    The other component of iWork is Keynote, and I like it much better than Powerpoint; to me it is just easier to use. I have never tried converting back and forth between Keynote and Powerpoint.
    Depending on what grade your kids are in and what they are doing, I think I would start off with iWork and see what, if any, problems they encounter.  Of course, if they are going to use the computer for a class in Office or its components, your kids are going to need a Windows machine with Windows Office, because Office for Mac is enough different that when the teacher says, "Now, move your mouse here and click on....", your kids are going to be lost.
    Hope this is useful.

    <p>Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> was originally developed about 15  years ago for vegetable producers as a way to control root disease. In those  days you couldn&rsquo;t actually prove what was going on, but growers kept buying it  because it did what it was intended to do &ndash; it stopped root disease.<br />
      In the last 10 years there have been many advances in  understanding what microbes are in soil, and what they are doing. This has  largely come about because of the so-called DNA revolution. By using this DNA  technology, we can now see exactly what changes occur in soil microbiology when  Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> is applied. <br />
    <br> <strong>How is it made ?</strong> <strong></strong><br />
      Bioprime<sup>TM</sup>  is made by fermentation of molasses using  baker&rsquo;s yeast. This sounds really simple, but there are a number of factors involved  to make it work. <br />
      The amount of oxygen in the fermentation determines how much  alcohol, acid or CO2 is made from the sugar in molasses.  Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> is made with the amount  of air carefully controlled in order to make a maximum amount of both alcohols  and acids. These then condense to form esters.   Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> is full of esters.<br />
      With Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> we want lots of yeast, so  nutrients are added to make the yeast grow quickly. At the end of the process  we have a lot of biomass, because just like in Vegemite, yeast biomass contains  a lot of protein and vitamins.<br />
      The fermentation which makes Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> doesn&rsquo;t  stop completely, it slows down as it becomes pickled in its own acids. We then  arrest the process by bursting the yeast cells, making a stable, long-life  product. <br />
    <br><strong>How does it work ?</strong><br />
      Looking at soil microbiology using DNA shows it is very  complex. There are tens of thousands of different species in each gram of soil.  There is no point in looking at any single species, for they all seem to come  and go with changing seasons and conditions.<br />
      Instead we look at the major groups and the diversity within  each group. We look at 5 major groups:</p>
    <ul>
      <li>Proteobacteria:   These are simple, fast growing bacteria (formerly called gram  negatives), can dominate anaerobic (no oxygen) environments, live off simple  organic matter &ndash; they generally don&rsquo;t do your soil much good.</li>
      <li>Fermicutes: More complex, also fast growing  (formerly called gram positives), some are important pathogens, can be  anaerobic or aerobic, also don&rsquo;t do soil much good.</li>
      <li>Archea: These are tough and ancient life forms,  slow growing, but live in extreme environments (hot, salty, acidic etc). Their importance  in soil was only realised with DNA methods. They build up to significant  numbers in cultivated soil.</li>
      <li>Actinobacteria: These are quite complex bacteria  which are involved in soil carbon dynamics. They are slow growing but feisty,  as they are the chemical warfare specialists in soil. (Most of the antibiotics  and drugs we use come from this group). When there are plenty present, root pathogens  are suppressed.</li>
      <li>Fungi: These are more complex than bacteria, and  fall into two groups, the lower fungi are mainly moulds, and the higher fungi,  the Dikarya are the mushrooms and the mycorrhyza.</li>
    </ul>
    <p>The more diverse a soil&rsquo;s microbial population, the  healthier it is. All the above five groups should be present, but because the  Actinobacteria and Fungi are beneficial to plant growth, high diversity in  these groups is particularly important.<br />
      When Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> is added to soil, the  Actinobacteria and Dikarya get a boost because they get a dose of vitamins. The  proteobacteria get suppressed, firstly because the way they communicate with  each other, a process called quorum sensing, is interrupted. Secondly, they can&rsquo;t  grow s easily on the complex esters, but higher bacteria and fungi can.<br />
      When we look at the way group diversity changes, we see short  term and longer term impacts. In the short term, anaerobic bacteria are quickly  suppressed. Then we see Dikarya and Actinobacteria start to build up numbers.<br />
      These changes mean the best time to use Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> is  when you sow your crop, then again once it is established &ndash; at the two to four  leaf stage. <br />
      In moist soil, grains take a few days to imbibe water and  start to germinate. During this time, the presence of proteobacteria can be  harmful, as they can feed on the exudates produced by a germinating seed and  make a local anaerobic zone in wet soil, slowing down emergence. On the other  hand, you want Dikarya active, for within this group are the mycorrhyzal fungi  which colonize roots and help plant phosphorous uptake.  There is plenty of competition in soil, so the  quicker they can colonise the root, the more likely they will persist.<br />
      There are a number of important pathogenic organisms which  lurk in soil, and they often go unnoticed until stress hits the plant. An  important control against pathogens is the Actinobacteria which feed on the  pathogens. They also antagonise the simple bacteria which mineralise nitrogen.<br />
      So Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> does quite a lot of things, all of  which are good for the ability of soil to support healthy plant growth.<br />
    <br><strong>How much to use ?</strong><br />
      The optimal application rate depends on two important  factors, pH and soil organic matter.<br />
      Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> works best at a soil pH of 7 &ndash; and this  is the point of optimal plant nutrient availability. We always advise to lime  soil to get it to pH 7 &ndash; because we now we realise this is also the point of  maximum microbial diversity. <br />
      At a pH of 7, you only need to apply 3 liters per hectare at  each application to get a maximal response. If the pH is lower, you get a  better response by applying more &ndash; 5 liters per hectare at pH 4.5 &ndash; 5.5, and 4  liters per hectare at pH 5.5 &ndash; 6.5.<br />
      The amount of organic matter in soil also influences the  best application rate, but in a complex way. At low soil organic matter (under  0.5% organic carbon), a low rate works well (but adjusted for pH). If your soil  carbon is between 0.5 &ndash; 1.5%, it takes a bit more for maximal impact because  there is more background microbes living off that carbon, so you apply about  50% more. But if your soil carbon is very good (say 1.5 &ndash; 2.5%), you can drop the  rate back again. If organic carbon is above 2.5% - you are blessed, and you  soil is likely to already be very healthy and it is unlikely Bioprime<sup>TM</sup>  will give you a further benefit. The following  table summarises the best application rate.</p>

    <p><strong>How to apply Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> </strong><br />
      If you have a liquid system on your drill rig, it is best to  apply Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> as a spray into the drill row after the press  wheel. Simply dilute the volume you need in sufficient water to get even  spread.<br />
      Application with a boom spray just before seeding is an  acceptable alternative. Again, simply dilute Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> with water  to get even spread.<br />
      Once your crop is up and established, the second application  can be with a boom spray. Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> is acidic and completely water  soluble, so it is compatible with most chemicals (but check first with a jar  test).<br />
    <br><strong>Bad Start ?</strong><br />
      Sometimes the seasons are unkind &ndash; sow dry and no rain  comes, or too much rain comes and paddocks waterlog.  Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> opens an opportunity  window for about 3 weeks. If you dry sow and it hasn&rsquo;t rained in the first  three weeks, it is probably worth another application once it rains. Likewise  if things get too wet and the crop starts to get stressed and yellow, another  application of Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> will help it get back on its feet.<br />
    <br><strong>Seeing Bioprime<sup>TM</sup>  at work</strong><br />
      We always encourage you to sow a bit of your crop without  Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> so you can see it at work. You should see earlier  emergence, and once the crop is established, compare the root structure between  treated and untreated areas. If you believe root structure is important, you  will be impressed.<br />
      If you want to get into detail, Bioscience provides an assay  of soil microbial diversity which is a world first. Send us a 50 g sample of  soil (sampled properly from the top 150 mm, and put into a refrigerator and  send it to us on ice). We extract the DNA, then measure how many types of  microbes are present in significant numbers in each of the 5 major groups. From  this we can derive a biodiversity index and a health index. If you are  interested in soil biology and soil health, this leading-edge assay can show  you how your soil changes from year to year, guiding you with information on  what treatments work and what doesn&rsquo;t.<br />
    <br><strong>Is there anything  else like Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> ?</strong><br />
      There are a number of products which come and go which make  claims about improving soil health. They never come with a technical  description of what they are, and they never come with field trial data.  Usually there are lots of testimonials from someone in Utah or New Delhi, and  there are pictures of a guy holding big onions in one hand and small onions in  the other.<br />
      We take notice when farmers start talking positively about  getting a good response from a product, so we go out and buy some and pull it  apart in our lab.  There are only two we  have found which are somewhat similar. TM21, made by Best in Canada is  fermented molasses, but it is lot thinner, and poorly stabilised &ndash; smells a bit  putrid compared to Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> .  Vitazyme is  made in the USA, but it is fermented corn syrup rather than molasses, but for  some odd reason they add vitamin D to it (even though there is no known  function for Vitamin D in anything other than higher vertebrates!<br />
      But the huge difference is the price. <br />
    <br><strong>What does</strong> <strong>Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> Cost and How Do I Get  It ?</strong><br />
      Getting Bioprime<sup>TM</sup> is easy. You buy it online  direct from the manufacturer. It is only sold in 1000L IBC&rsquo;s for $2 per liter (FOB). <br />
    If you have your own IBC&rsquo;s, drop them off and we will fill  them up. If you don&rsquo;t, you will have to pay $150 for a serviceable second hand  one.</p>
