Text formatting in Briefings

KimLersch1 — Mon, 26 Aug 2024 14:42:54 GMT

Hi! I'm working on a presentation and for the first time I am trying to use briefings. Is there a way to include bulleted text in the slides? I did not see any way to do so within briefings, so I tried to copy and paste a bulleted point from Word into the briefings slide. I do not want to get in to coding. Is there an easy fix for this, or are we still waiting on more options? It just looks a bit odd (see screen capture below). Thanks!

Hi @KimLersch1 , You can highlight text and open the text editor dropdown to choose the Bulleted list format. You can also type "-" and then a space to create a bullet with the shortcut.

Are you on an ArcGIS Enterprise organization? There is a chance you're on an earlier/beta release of the briefings that doesn't have the bulleted functionality.

Awesome!!!! Thank you so much! This is really going to improve the quality of my presentation! I'm a little bit frustrated with some of the functioning (or lack thereof) with formatting images, titles, etc. Briefings is definitely not Powerpoint, but Powerpoint is not Briefings, either. I'm sure with future releases we will be able to do more. Thank you so much!
