Keyboard shortcut for bullets in notes?

Hi,

I'm considering using "Notes" for a class and was wondering if there is a keyboard shortcut/hotkey to insert a bullet list. I'm aware of "option 8", that doesn't really make a list since hitting enter will not create a new bullet. Going up to Format, Lists, and Insert Bulleted List, might get old.

Thanks!

I realise this is an old posting, but to this day I couldn't find an answer myself for this.

Luckily I've stumbled upon the answer: CMD+8 = • which Notes then recognises as a bullet point list

This support post has all the other helpful keyword shortcuts in Notes, like applying Title, Heading, Body or Checklist formats: Notes for Mac: Keyboard shortcuts in Notes

If I were you, I would use the (free from the Mac App Store) Microsoft app "Microsoft OneNote"... it's simple to use and much more full-featured that Apple's Notes.

Good luck,
