List Items

Using the list item icon you can setup a bulleted or numbered list. To change the icons or numbers just right click on the list and go to List Item properties or watch the video below.

Bulleted Lists

Bulleted lists are by far the most widely used kind of list on webpages. Bulleted lists are flexible and fun, and easy to read. You can convert many long blocks of text into a bulleted list and make the text shorter, easier to read, and more interesting. If you have to move existing text to the web, consider converting parts of it to bulleted lists as a quick way to grab a visitor's attention.

Example

  • Bulleted List Item 1
  • Bulleted List Item 2
  • Bulleted List Item 3
  • Bulleted List Item 4

Bulleted List Options

  • Circle
  • Disc
  • Square

Numbered Lists

Numbered lists are the best way to present sequencing necessary for conveying processes and procedures.

Examples

  1. Numbered List Item 1
  2. Numbered List Item 2
  3. Numbered List Item 3
  4. Numbered List Item 4

Alpha List Options

  2. Upper Roman
  3. Lower Alpha

You can insert or nest one list inside another. The nested list can be the same kind of list, or a different kind, than the list that contains it.
