Column Length

Column Length

Postby LeonardRenner » Mon Jun 15, 2020 12:20 am

So there are some slides I put on that have a lot of information on one card and sometimes to organize it I just manual bullets and spacing like you would see on a normal bullet format in word.

I have noticed that when a certain line gets long it jumps over so I would go into google sheets and add the space. for example:

<sp><sp>What is the significance of bilateral symmetry? Allows for
<sp><sp>directional movement, and evolution of associated features

I currently use my tablet (Samsung 8") and I have to eye where that line cuts off to add the space in landscape orientation.

I use the text wrap to help, but my question is, is there a way to know how long a column length should be in order to monitor the cutoff line better or does it depend on the device?

My other question is will there be an opportunity to add a bullet format like Microsoft Office? It would be a boat load of difference in organizing because I'm trying to go paperless and study my notes off this app.

Hi Leonard,

I'm really sorry for the extremely slow response.
Below is text from the in-app help. If you want a bulleted list, try the example below. Put all 3 lines in a single Excel cell. If you need more than this, let me know.

Ernie


<list>
- first sentence
- second sentence



If you want to create bulleted or ordered lists where wrapped text is indented, or have a table where you want to line up text into columns, you can try using a built in “list” feature.

Create a list by starting with < list> on its own line.

Example 1

<list>
- one
- two


Bulleted or ordered lists
Separate columns with a space:

- one
- two

1) one
2) two


Tables
Separate columns with two spaces:
(2 spaces shown below as ☐)

Item 1☐Orange
Item 2☐Apple


Outline
Indent items with a period:

I. Main
. A. Sub 1
.. 1. Sub 2


Final Details

Lists stop when a blank line is found. If you want to include a blank line in your list, end the list with < /list>

If you need to adjust the font size of your list, you can use < size> tags as shown below to set a specific font size.

In the example below, < u> is used to underline, and < left> is used to left justify (or you can change in Deck Options > Font / Alignment). These are optional.


Example 2

< u>Tables< /u>< left>
< size 25>< left>
< list>
I have☐yo tengo
You have☐tú tienes
He has☐él tiene
< /list>
< /size>
