TubaDiva (or anyone else, for that matter), How can I inset a list _without_ putting some sort of bullet at the start of each subsection? i.e., ```auto (list)(*)one(*)two(/list) ``` returns[ul][li]onetwo[/ul][/li] ```auto (list=A)(*)one(*)two(/list=A) ``` returns[list=A][li]onetwo[/list=A][/li] Can I get separate indented lines in a list without any kind of marker at the start of the line? ---

Just use the list tag with no “\*” tag.[ul]Like this[/ul] pan ---

In fact, it’s also worth remembering that the “\*” tag is independent of the list tag. That is: [li]I can make bullets[/li] [li]without using the list tag at all![/li][ul]And vice versa of course[/ul] pan ---

And you can multiple indent, also:[ul] Section I[list]Section 1.1 Section 1.2 Section 1.3[/ul]Section II[ul]Section 2.1 Section 2.2[/ul] ---

You can also make an indented, non-bulleted list without using the {LIST} command at all: Item One    Item Two       You can indent            however much                         you want                                      to! 🙂 [sub]Anyone know how I did that?[/sub] ---

**kniz** : I feel like I should make you work at figuring out the answer before I tell you - I mean, did you use the “Reply To” Feature to try to look at how I coded my post? It wouldn’t have helped, but it’s always a good first step. 😉 Here’s the trick: Hold down the ALT Key and type 0160 on your Number Pad then release ALT. That will advance your cursor a single space. That’s a “hard space” (or some other techno-nonsense). All that means is that the space will appear in your posts. So  you   can     use      them       to move        text to the                    right.                                      See? 🙂 ---
