Lists

The List block is used to create lists of text items in either a bulleted or numbered format. The List block provides the following list formats:

  • Numbered list: Content is organized in an ordered, numerical order

     

  • Bulleted list: Content is organized by a unordered, bulleted list

     

To create a list, follow these steps:

  1. Create a new placeholder for a block. The placeholder text (“Type / to choose a block”) is displayed.

     

  2. Type /list in the placeholder. A list of heading block options is displayed.

     

  3. Select the List block. The toolbar for the List block is displayed.

     

  4. By default, the List block is set to bulleted lists. If you want to create a bulleted list, enter the text, then press enter to create another row in the list.

     

If you instead want to create a numbered list, follow the remaining steps.

  1. To create a numbered list, click Select List in the toolbar (the leftmost option). The list options are displayed.

     

  2. Click the Ordered List icon. The list is converted to a numbered list (the bullets change to numbers).

    Note: A list type can be selected before the list text is created, or the list text can be created and then converted into the desired list type as demonstrated in the steps above.

     

  3. Enter the text, then press Enter to create another row in the list. Numbering is automatically applied.

Reordering Lists

List items can be reordered without copying and pasting text. To move a list item, follow these steps:

  1. Click the list item you want to move.

     

  2. Use the Up and Down arrows to move the list item to the desired location. Numbering is automatically updated if you are reordering a numbered list.


    For longer lists, click and hold the Drag icon (the icon with six dots), then move the list item to the desired location.

 Deleting List Items

To delete a list item but not the entire list, follow these steps:

  1. Click the list item you want to delete.

  2. Click the Options icon in the formatting toolbar (the rightmost icon with three dots). A menu of options is displayed.

     

  3. Click Delete. The list item is removed from the list. The remaining list items are not deleted.
