Adjust the space in PowerPoint bullet points

Sunday, July 17, 2005

It's easy to adjust the space between a bullet point and its corresponding text on a presentation slide. In Microsoft PowerPoint, begin by displaying the ruler (VIEW » RULER), then select the line of bullet-point text. On the ruler, locate the left-indent marker (the marker on the lower side of the ruler, pointing upward; be careful not to move the square marker below it). Drag the indent marker to the right to increase the space between the bullet symbol and the text; drag it to the left to decrease the space. The marker moves in increments of half the distance of the ruler marks. To further fine-tune the spacing, hold down the CTRL key as you drag the marker.
