How to render bullet lists?

Hi,

AFAIK, PenPot doesn’t support bullet and numbered lists, correct?

Has anyone found a workaround?

Thanks.

Hi,
the only thing that comes to mind now is to create bullet points (alt + . on mac) and play with the indents manually.

Thanks.

I’m trying to play around this topic with an alternate solution.

Check out the attached file. It’s

  • a bullet component
  • text element.

And an auto layout element which combines both.

It works…almost. You can resize the Board object, and this makes the text inside to be wrapped accordingly. But I can’t figure out how to get the Board’s height to encompass the text height. Because without this behavior, I don’t see any way to get something usable.

Any idea someone?

You can set the text to fix height then auto height

I’ve created numbered lists (like bullets but numbers instead!) in the How To pages of most of my templates, like the Design tokens starter kit. This uses similar settings as @Louis describes above.
