Replying to a quite old mail. When I a couple of months ago asked how to
indent paragraphs with, e.g., a bullet in front of each paragraph, the
above was one of the answers I received.

This ctrl-/ feature, where can I find that in the menus? The problem is
that the Danish keyboard layout is not exactly like the US, and to get
a /, I have to press shift-7, but if I press ctrl-shift-7 PGS opens the
Page palette Sad

Try the divide sign from the numeric keyboard.

Why didn't I think about that. Thanks.

I may have what you want to do totally wrong... BUT, I thought
that it was a snap to do... just go into the paragraph tag
setting and pick what you want... it is in the top right
of the box and you can pick danged near anything you want. I
have been using bullets forever....

Maybe I am wrong in interpreting your quiry, but if you want
more explanation as to where, I can sure tell you what to do.
I always set up tags for almost everything and set the
parameters I want in every area... making sure I put 0 in
a lot of places I don't want the program to assume things,
and then I can make changes to a whole document just by
changing one thing in the tag... I thought everyone did it
that way with PageStream....
