as you create more and more PowerPoint
presentations you're probably going to
find yourself using a lot of bulleted
and numbered lists lists are a great way
to present information to your audience
because they break up the information
into manageable pieces and we're going
to talk about the different ways that
you can customize your bullets or
numbers to give a distinctive look to
your lists
the first thing you should do is select
the list and on the Home tab you'll find
the bullets drop down arrow which lets
you select a different style
and if you prefer to use a numbered list
you can click the numbering drop-down
arrow
now let's say we're using a numbered
list and maybe this list is actually a
continuation from the previous slide
instead of counting up from one we might
want it to start with save five first go
to the numbering drop-down arrow and
then click bullets and numbering
and this is where you'll go whenever you
need to customize your bullets or
numbers
where it says start at you can just
change that to a different number
and it will now count up from the new
number
for this list I do want to use bullets
but none of these choices really match
the presentation luckily there are many
more bullets that we can choose from go
down to bullets and numbering
and here you can either choose a picture
to be your bullet or you can click on
customize to choose a symbol and that's
what I'm going to do
I like to use the wingding spot because
it contains a lot of useful symbols
so you can pick any of these symbols to
be your bullet
I kind of like this one
click okay and you'll see your symbol
appear in this area
you can also change the size
or the color
you can choose any of these colors and
if you don't see the exact color that
you want you can click more colors
and when you click ok the bullets will
appear in your list now I think these
bullets are much more interesting now
so you have many different options for
customizing lists and you can really
tailor them to the style of your
presentation like what you just saw
