How To Do Bullet Points on the New Profile Pages

By
Real Estate Agent with Atlanta Communities Real Estate Brokerage GREC #208281

Since formatting is very limited on the new ActiveRain Profile pages, any little bit of formatting will be helpful.  Margaret Woda had a great post about getting bolded and italicized formatting by pressing "Control B" and "Control I"

I stumbled upon a way to do bullet points to highlight a list of items.

I have Windows XP and I went to: 

Start, at the bottom left of your screen.

All Programs

Accessories

System Tools

Character Map

You should see something like this

TIP(in order to be able to scroll down through the character list, you need to pick one character in order to dehighlight the Font selection. Otherwise when you scroll you will be scrolling through all the different fonts.)

I tried to see if the fonts "symbol" or "wingings" would work but it doesn't seem to work.  It looks like the basic Arial font is what your selections will be.

Press the copy button and then when you are editing your profile you paste it where you want it to be. 

Play around with it to get it just right.

Another small formatting trick that I noticed was "Control U" underlines what you have selected.

Thx Tim.  I caught on David's reblog.  Also, last night I figured out how to do pictures (see my blog post from this morning).

Hi Tim. I wish they offered it in the formatting so we would not have to resort to this.
