Change bullet color in Rise
In Rise, when I change the color of text to white, the bullets remain black. Is there a way to make the bullets the same color as text?

This gets my vote too! Come on Articulate. This is Microsoft level apathy on your part!
I'm not sure why this is taking so long to roll out (it's been an open issue for 4 years). Adjusting the color of a bullet should be a standard (let alone all the other basic type manipulation this software lacks). At the very least make it so the color of the bullet matches the text if you can do it quicker. I realize you are trying to "dumb this down" to make it easier to edit/faster to create, but your user base isn't as dumb as you surmise. Looks matter in most industries and we should have way more control over the type within the platform.
Has this issue been resolved? I have to redesign my whole course because I didn't realize you can't change bullet colors.
No sign of this being addressed at all. Sadly, this is typical with Articulate. Very little ever happens from these change requests.

It doesn't make me happy at all....
It seems such an easy fix...
So I had to explain my customers they can't use bullet points. Again. That makes no sense to them. Neither to me.
Today I submitted a case about this. Feel free to do the same so they understand we need this fixed: https://articulate.com/support/contact/
Has a solution for this been developed. I am experiencing it currently.
Hi everyone.
I wanted to let you know that we're hearing the pain this is causing for you and your clients. While we're currently limited by the text editor we use in Rise, we are exploring some other options that may provide better formatting. I can't make a promise about a timeline for that change, but I did want you all to know that we're taking your feedback to heart!
Thanks, Crystal.
We can but hope.How many votes does it take to get a least a larger than tiny dot for a bullet point? It does not match the dimensions of the check boxes or numbered lists.
Do not paint this either as a difficult to implement change that requires years of effort. The sizes of the bullets are changeable as CSS height and width for the class
.block-list__bulletI can make these changes easily in my browser inspector but I cannot do this when my content is published.This is easily doable. Why it's not is a mystery.
All of the formatting that people are asking for in this thread can be achieved with relatively simple CSS/HTML/Javascript changes in the browser. Although the software changes the devs need to make will be a little more complex, it's a relatively simple fix in the grand scheme of things - as you've highlighted here.
It's strange that this hasn't been fixed in the three years this thread has been running.
I was going to reply that this is fine except that my content is being loaded into an LMS as a SCORM package, and I cannot slip in custom CSS. But I found the back door.
First, expand the zip file of the exported rise content. Navigate down the directory and open the CSS file
scormcontent --> lib --> main.bundle.css
I did a search for .block-list__bullet and change the height and width from 0.7rem to 2.5rem
I zipped it all back up, and loaded a test to SCORM Cloud. I have now rendered by content with beefier bullets.
And now... the whole can of formatting worms is opened up!
Any update on this yet? I saw another post with this same issue 3 years ago and it's still not fixed?
Hi Shana! Thanks for voicing your interest in this feature along with the others who have chimed in here. Sorry, we don't have any updates for you yet at this time. We've seen all the feedback and will update you here if we make any changes that will help.
