Bullets and numbering
Create bulleted or numbered lists
In bulleted lists, each paragraph begins with a bullet character. In numbered lists, each paragraph begins with an
expression that includes a number or letter and a separator such as a period or parenthesis. The numbers in a
numbered list are updated automatically when you add or remove paragraphs in the list. You can change the type of
bullet or numbering style, the separator, the font attributes and character styles, and the type and amount of indent
spacing.
You cannot use the Type tool to select the bullets or numbers in a list. Instead, edit their formatting and indent
spacing using the Bullets And Numbering dialog box, the Paragraph panel, or the Bullets And Numbering section
of the Paragraph Styles dialog box (if the bullets or numbers are part a style).
Bulleted list and numbered list
A quick way to create a bulleted or numbered list is to type the list, select it, and then click the Bulleted List or
Numbered List button in the Control panel. These buttons let you turn the list on or off and switch between bullets
and numbers. You can also make bullets and numbering part of a paragraph style and construct lists by assigning
styles to paragraphs.
Note: Automatically generated bullet and number characters aren’t actually inserted in the text. Therefore, they cannot
be found during a text search or selected with the Type tool unless you convert them to text. In addition, bullets and
numbering don’t appear in the story editor window (except in the paragraph style column).
