Lists

Bullet and numbered lists with nesting and keyboard reordering.

Bullet lists

Type - (hyphen) or * (asterisk) followed by a space at the start of a line to create a bullet list. You can also use the slash menu or the toolbar. Each new line within the list automatically gets a bullet.

Numbered lists

Type 1. followed by a space to start a numbered list. Subsequent items are numbered automatically as you press Enter. The numbering updates dynamically if you reorder or delete items.

Nesting

Press Tab to indent a list item, creating a nested sub-list. Press ShiftTab to outdent it. You can nest multiple levels deep. The keyboard shortcuts Ctrl] and Ctrl[ also work for indenting and outdenting.

Moving items

Use Alt↑ and Alt↓ to move the current list item up or down within its list. This works for both bullet and numbered lists, and the numbering adjusts automatically.
