+1 here. Please, Articulate, wake up. It's getting harder to justify the use of Rise with these ridiculous limitations and the lack of support and updates.
+1 here, too. I just had a reviewer ask why I didn't use a bulleted list in an overview section that uses white text on a blue background to separate itself from the rest of the content. I had to tell him it's a limitation of the authoring tool because I can't change the color of the bullets. :-(
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that the bullet will take on the color of the "accent color" you choose if you customize the theme in the setting on the main page of Rise. I'm currently developing a Rise course and selected an accent color that is a shade of green that my company uses. Every block I've added that has bullets utilizes that green.
You can change the color there but it applies to everything. So if you want to have one color block with a green background color, you can't then change the bullets to white.
Emily, you're quite right it will apply to all other places that accent color is used. Historically, I have found that the accent color (assuming it's not egregious) is used sparingly throughout the project and does not impede it when changed for all items. But to your point, you definitely want to stick to a theme for coloring and cannot change SOME bullet colors yet leave others.
Just hit this problem as well. As with so many other issues with Rise, all I can hear from Articulate, is crickets. Clearly the Articulate team feels that all these small niggly things are not a priority, and it's all 'good enough'. Not sure what kind of a CX you feel is acceptable, but I can feel a strategic review of our authoring approach coming on...
Same here. I am already watching videos and reading reviews of other web-based authoring tools. Articulate is unresponsive and has been for the last three years or so.
Totally agree. The number of emails I get each week with +1's for basic requests that are multiple years old baffles my mind. Having some background in web development, I know that a lot of them would be pretty quick and easy to implement. Obviously they haven't hit the tipping point of where enough customers have left to warrant them spending the money to address these issues yet... but not sure we'll be sticking around long enough to find out.
This is SOOOO ridiculous. This is why I'm telling all the companies and clients I work with to switch to EVOLVE for authoring e-learning. Now that it's subscription based it's completely affordable. SHAME on Articulate for letting this SIMPLE fix drag on for more than THREE YEARS.
JC B posted a simple request 4 years ago. Since then small tech companies has developed to be a part of Nasdaq. And we are still not able to edit a bullet… Staff, how do you feel with your answers. Why not just say it as it is?et.

Three years later... do we have a solution for this?

+1 from me too!

3 years ago and still not fixed.
Hi all, it's been three years since this discussion, and I am looking for an answer to format bullets in Rise. Is there a way to do this?
3 years ago, and still have the same issue. Such a problem no being able to change the color :(

Hello, I just want to ask if the above concern is already fixed? Thanks.

Not being able to format bullets? REALLY?

Just seeing if this has been fixed as I am having the same issue 3 years later.
Has this been updated yet? Would love the ability to change bullet color.
It's not yet no
Use Alt + 0149 to create the bullet point in the text color
Another vote from me & my team to enable bulletpoint color change.
I am sorry but this was reported over 4 years ago and appears to still be an issue.
This is a function that is expected in a basic WYSIWYG editor — Rise is meant to be a premium product.
