Bullets

Creating a list of bullet points is quite easy in FrontPage.

  • Place your insertion point where you want the list to appear on your page

  • Click on the Bullets icon on the Formatting toolbar.  This will insert a bullet at the insertion point.

  • Pressing the Enter key will end the line and create a new bullet.

  • For more options, select Format, Bullets or Numbering from the menu bar.

  • The Bullets and Numbering dialog will open.

  • Options include Use pictures from the current theme, or clicking Browse to select a picture from other themes, or a bullet graphic that you create using a graphics program.

  • Clicking on the Style button will open the modify style dialog, and clicking on the Format button allows you to make other changes.  You won't probably use this feature much.

  • Clicking on Enable Collapsible Outlines, and Initially Collapsed allows you to create outlines where the content collapses.  See the examples below.  I used to use this feature quite a bit, but I have moved away from it, because I found a lot of people were confused by it, even in the face of explicit instructions.

  • You can also copy and paste an existing list from Word or Excel, although it will not be editable in FrontPage.

You use the Increase Indent and Decrease Indent buttons to remove a bullet from a section of text, or to add an indented bullet section.

Hands on Exercise

  • Create a New Page, save it as practice.htm, and change the title to Practice Page.

  • Place your insertion point at the top of the main body area of the page.

  • Click on the Bullets icon.  This will place the first bullet on your page.  Type the word January and click Enter.

  • At the second bullet type February and continue through June.  You should have 6 bullet points.

  • Click on the Enter key to create bullet point 7.

  • Click on the Increase Indent button once.  The button disappears and the insertion point is indented slightly.

  • Now type June is the first month of summer and popular for vacations and weddings. You might use this feature to add a paragraph after a bullet point.

  • Hit the Enter key again, and then Decrease Indent.  You should be looking at bullet number 8.  Type July.

  • Hit the Enter key again, and click on the Increase Indent key twice.  You should have an indented bullet.  Type Week 1. Hit Enter again and type Week 2.

Basically, to increase the indent and create another bullet, click the Increase Indent key twice.  Clicking once creates an indented paragraph below the bullet.

To change the level of an existing bullet, place your insertion point between the bullet and the start of the line, and click on Increase to change the level to the right, and Decrease to change the level to the left.
