[discuss] Bullets and numbering

2006-08-24 Thread Mart

Hi,

Its only a small thing. the way bullets and numbering work at the moment 
is...
I type a line... set the bullet graphic and press enter this then 
creates another bullet underneath, which if i dont want  i can tap 
delete and i can carry on writing a standard line.


But if i have a bullet, then create another bullet underneath this example:

* HEADING
BULLET LINE 2

if i now press return after bullet line 2 it will create another bullet 
line 2 like this


* HEADING
BULLET LINE 2
BULLET LINE 2 extra

the trouble is, if i dont want another bullet line 2 underneath i cannot 
delete it because if i do it takes me back to writing a standard line. i 
have tried everything, what i would love to see is the delete key takes 
you back 1 bullet at a time, so i can be 4 bullets lines in and each 
time i press delete it will take me back one stage.
this stops me having to just write all of them out as heading and then 
press tab on each one after i have finished.


I really hope that makes sense, if not let me know and i will show you a 
better example.

Did you try to use the button on the toolbar which decreases the level of 
bullets and numbering?

Just as tab indents to next level, shift+tab will do the reverse and
take you up a level
