Bullet Points in X3
For the life of me I cant figure out how to apply bullet points in X3 on normal, boring Ariel Text. The button is there but its greyed out.
Can anyone help me out?
Cheers
Paul

Bullets in Draw are for Paragraph text and not Artistic. You can change bullet and spacing from dialogue box there. If you have artistic text it can be changed to paragraph text and vice versa.

Not entirely George you could use the ‘insert symbol character’ docker and then choose wingding font or anything) to put in you test string as a bullet, using paragraph text just enables more control on spacing etc.
Tip this – if you have a logo and you copy it to the clipboard when you type some text that logo can be pasted in the text string, it will separate correctly too.

Not quite sure what you mean by text string Alan 😕

i draw circles for bullet points and space them with blend 😳

George text string is your line of text ie. put a red square partially over a green circle and we’ll call that your logo (can be anything) and copy to clip board. Using artistic text type some words and instead of typing the next letter paste the logo in and then carry on typing.
*Note* converting to curves will lose the embedded grapgic as will printing to some pcl printers, printing to postscript devices is ok as is publishing to pdf and then printing to pclAre you ok with the symbol character method?
