Shortcut for inserting bullet?

Hi All,

This seems like an easy question, but I have been unable to find a solution (maybe there is none). Basically, I want to use Pages instead of Word's Notebook Layout for taking notes. The one feature I particularly like in Word's Notebook Layout is when you press the tab button, instead on doing just an intent it does an intent with a bullet mark. Similarly, when you press tab again, it does a next level bullet point.

I realize in pages the tab should and must do just an intent for regular word processing. However, is there a relatively easy key stroke to put an intent with a bullet. That would make typing notes MUCH faster than needing to go to the menu each time...

Thanks,
TM

You could apply a bullet style to the paragraphs & it will continue for succeeding paragraphs until you apply a different style. No tabbing necessary. In fact, tabbing shouldn't be done.

You could always just type Option + 8 to get a bullet in most fonts.
