Thanks Matthew, I tried that. I wanted to be able to adjust the amount of space between the bullets. A full paragraph space is a little too big and all of our content won't fit if we space it that way. Any way to adjust the line height?
Hi April -- you can't adjust the line height or spacing between bullets and text right now.
If you are not dealing with a large amount of text, you could place each line of text in a separate text box - it is a pain but it would give you the flexibility to organize the spacing more to your liking.
As for bullets, I often create my own using shapes or an image which allows me to align them any way I want. Again, it is a bit of a pain but makes for a nicer presentation in the end.
Kate, there have been lots of comments on the somewhat limited text capabilities of Storyline, line spacing among them. I'd suggest you submit a feature request because the more the Articulate staff hear about something the more likely it is to be implemented.
Thanks, Kate for posting which motivated me to also put in a request. I keep looking for the paragraph drop-down I'm so used to in PPT that allows incremental spacing, and then remembering it's not there. I've worked around in the way Nancy has suggested and she's right, it is a bit of a pain! Submitting a request now.
No, Nancy. Sorry if you thought I was doing it per your suggestion. I'd been doing it for quite some time, having coming up with this "solution" in the same way that you apparently did: working around it. When I saw Kate's post, it motivated me to take 5" and submit a feature request. So, the pain doesn't stem from you. Hope you feel better

The line spacing options are not great, also find the height too much - there need's to be a 0.5 option!

Thanks Brett, I shall!

I'm sorry that I caused you pain Rebecca.
