    Default repeated bullets

    I know somewhere there is a feature so that now one instance of the bullet will be output, unlike what I have now. Anyone?

    Image > Image Name.

    Earlier than v16, use Name, filename ="orangeBullet".

    I think this is what you are looking for
    1. Create your bullet list.
    2. Create your bullet and copy it to the clipboard.
    3. Select the text, right click and select List Properties.
    4. Click either Replace with Symbol or Replace from Clipboard.

    No Gary, any image you add in from Clipboard that does not have a declared Image Name is given a Xara number image, each and every bullet.
    A symbol from Font Awesome or Material Icons adds a new Font package for the benefit of a single glyph. These are better than images as they scale up nicely.

    My suggestion in naming a bullet image replaces the potential hundreds of duplicated bullet images that Xara generates. It is a rerun of the mess Xara throws in for NavBars and HiSlide pop-ups.

    The cleanest method is to create a square using the Rectangle Tool and apply the maximum curved corners.
    Colour with a Theme Colour. Size to fit and Copy to Clipboard.
    Access List Properties and use Replace from clipboard.

    Any Shape and Grouping of Shapes that only produce a SPAN as HTML output then embeds nicely, particularly as any individual one can be adjusted and manipulated in Xara and through JS/CSS. No font, no image, sharp bullets.

    Thanks my friends but I thought there was a new feature that came with xara recently that eliminated the naming. I have V17, so there must be a new command that I do not need to worry about?

    far as I see it naming is a good thing. SEO at its finest. May not seem like does much but I have gone to sites and renamed every image and seen some decent improvements in search engines from that alone.
