Can't change color of bullet
I'm having an issue where no matter what I do, one of my bullet points is showing up at black and I cannot change the color. Any ideas what's causing this/ how to correct the problem?

Hi!
Does this thread help? http://community.articulate.com/forums/p/13284/78666.aspx

Hmmmm, I tried that and it didn't work this time (and as many combinations of it as I could think), but it didn't work...although I"ll certainly keep it in mind. Maybe I had it beyond broken from messing around with it so much!!
I retyped the text picking my desired color first and it worked just fine. Was interested in finding a fix because I'm pretty sure this isn't the first time it happened to me.
Thanks for the input!

Hi Kristen,
Here's another work around that may be helpful in some situations for the last bullet "odd size/color" format issue...
- ensure there is a blank line immediately following the content to be bullet-ed
- highlight and bullet the desired content, avoiding selection of the last blank line
- if all goes well, enjoy the properly bullet-ed text
- to continue enjoyment, do not delete the blank line
Its not thoroughly tested, but has worked well on a few occasions!

Hmmm, that fix sounds a lot like the "missing bullet" fix in Presenter!
Still didn't work in this case- Bummer!
Thank you for the idea though- I will certainly try it if it happens again in a different instance. Looks like it's just one of those quirky things...

Kristin you need to highlight all the text on that button from left to right inckluding the button and then change the colour. When that doesnt work go right to left

Ah-ha!! It worked!
I used a combination of all of the above to get it to work. Thanks everyone--I feel better now

As a last resort - you could always make your own bullets using shapes. With all the struggling we do with this, it just might be easier sometimes.

When will Articulate fix this issue. Workarounds take time. I am becoming very discouraged with Storyline, especially when working with text :(
