Lettered Lists?
I'd like to make a lettered list:
A.
B.
C.
I thought I would be able to add a numbered list and change 1 to A, etc. But that isn't working for me. Am I missing something or is that not currently available?
Thanks!
Here's how to create alpha lists in Rise. Also at end of video is theory on why this issue persists.
This is great, Phil! Thanks for sharing this.
I'm sure this would greatly help others who are looking to create an alpha list in Rise. Appreciate this a lot!
Wow!!
I just tried it in my own lesson - we have success!
Thank you Phil Foss!
Any chance this is an easy fix for Articulate? I too would like a lettered list and the shapes of the numbered list makes so much sense and would be a quick way to do it. Thanks Karl for the table idea, but after 5 years let's hope articulate could make it happen so you can put any type of character in the list item field. :)
Articulate 360 where are we on alphabetical lists? Wanting this feature also please...
+1 for lettered list blocks and ANY type of customization, for that matter. E.g., font size, font style (bold, italic), color. Shouldn't be that hard, right?
+1 to the pleeeeease give us alphabetical ordering...
It's 2024 and we don't have an option to use lettered lists? I honestly thought this was a given - until I tried to create a lettered list tonight. Please please please add this feature to Lists.
Hey Aaron,
You can change the numbers in the Numbered List block to be any number you like. Adam shows us how right here!
For now, you can only use numerical characters in a Numbered List, but I can see how using letters would give you more flexibility. I'll pass your idea along to my team--thanks for letting us know what you'd like to see!
Anymore word on this? Would be nice to use alphabets.
Hi Shua! Thanks for following up. Only Numbers, Checkboxes, and Bullet points for the List block at this time. Thanks for letting us know you'd like to see letters as well!
100% agree it would be helpful if we could modify that style more.
Brilliant Phil! Thanks so much!
I really think I need to learn HTML :)
Glad to help TD, and you bring up an interesting point. In most websites, CSS (style information) is separate from your HTML code in a separate document (in a Cascading Style Sheet.) But the text editor in Rise- that you use when changing a font size or color- is adding inline css. It's not a very sustainable or replicable system, and leads to about 40% (estimate) of the ui bugs and feature requests on here. The hack I describe above exploits the same method that Articulate uses to modify text elements.
Well, there you go! I've learnt something new. Thanks!
