change bullet list

[tobaisch]

Hello,
How can i change a bit the unsorted standard list, which one generates with a "*" or  a "**".
I would especially like the second sublist in a smaller font and without a circle at the beginning.
THX

This can be accomplished with a CSS Stylesheet tiddler.

Create a tiddler and name it anything you want.

Tag it with "$:/tags/Stylesheet". Paste the following into the text field and save it.

ul ul, ol ul { list-style-type: none; }
ul ul li, ol ul li { font-size: smaller; }

This will affect all nested lists, so if you go to a 3rd "sub" level, it will have an even smaller font size than the 2nd sub-level (and no circle/dot).

If this is unwanted, you can define similar "child of" CSS selectors to set the behavior of sub-lists 3 levels or below.

Best,
Joshua Fontany

Yeees! Exactly, i was looking for that.
Especially the style types ul ul, ol ul with this double spelling I've never heard of it.
It works perfect anyway.
Thanks Joshua

Though this is a year old topic, I thought I would leave a note here how this helped me.

I wanted to make a list using letters instead of numbers or bullets - of the type:

   a. Item 1
   b. Item 2
   c. Item 3

Not being that conversant with  CSS, this post, along with TW's page Styles and Classes in WikiText, and w3schools.com - CSS list-style Property  - helped to make it easier.

While at w3schools.com, I found there are many different styles available there for making lists as well using the CSS list-style-type Property

This below is what I used:

@@list-style-type:lower-alpha;
* Item 1                      
* Item 2                      
* Item 3

Thanks
