Hello, as we get more requests for differentiated text build up in
templates, here's the quest:

What would be the easiest way to have a text in a place holder start as a
'statement' without bullet, and then continue as a bulleted list?

(now it is solved by using the first level of Indent as having the bullet,
as follows)

This is a statement through which the
speaker wants the audience to get
attention to, is that through, or not;

> yes it is
> no it is not
> probably
> all of the above

(sorry for the fuzzy example)

Using the first 'Indent level' to start the bulleted list is 'tricked' by an
'empty space' as a bullet on the first level.

Anyone know a more sophisticated solution?

Thanx!
Guurt

Fastest way I could think of is to go into the slide master,
Then on the content placeholder, right click on the first indent level,
select Bullets and Numbering.
Click on Customize button.
Select something like "Right-To-Left Mark" (Character code is 200F) which
will produce an empty bullet.
Click ok to apply to the change.
Close Master View.
