No one truly knows the origin of the phrase ‘bullet point’ but some say they came about because it was too much trouble to renumber a list once edited on a typewriter. The Alt-8 shortcut back then would have blown their minds! The symbol for a bullet list can vary from a dash to a little black heart to a tiny cross. In the day of the typewriter people would type a lowercase ‘o’ and then fill it in with ink. Now you have a bullet point shortcut for Word or Office on PC.īullets have been around for a while. It is weird because other keyborad shortcuts still work on onenote for ipad (e.g., numbering - cmd+/). I update both ios and onenote version to the latest, but still not working. Click the press new shortcut key box and type in your shortcut. I use a lot bullet points when taking notes, and the keyboard shortcut for bulleting (cmd+.) works well on my mac, but it doesn’t function on my ipad. Now choose formatting from the categories list then in the commands list choose format bullet default. To find this choose tools/customise/keyboard (pre Word 2007) and Office/ Word options/customise. If you feel it will pay off you can build your own shortcut. Ok, but what if you want an actual formatted list? On Mac you’re in luck for MS Office, for Windows you may have consistency issues going between versions.
