Hi Rich,
Seeing as you are pasting the list code in a Markup Item, you actually have
a lot of CSS control. I don’t know what your skill levels are, so forgive
me if I describe this rather basically.
Assuming you want to style the lists similarly, let’s start by grouping
their styles into a class set. First, choose a name for the set then open
the Markup Items and apply it to all of the list tags (ul) like this:
<ul class="myclassname">
Now, our CSS will target all these lists, and only these lists.
The next step is to choose between an EASY METHOD or an ADVANCED METHOD of
creating styles for the lists. First, the EASY method:
In your same Freeway Pro document create a New Page and title it Resources
or something like that. Draw a layered html box and type in one of your
lists. Using the List pane of the Inspector to indent your list, thus
actually creating a list structure. Choose ‘Round Bullets’ from the list
style (if you want no bullets, still choose round bullets for now and we’ll
fix it a little later). You will see in the Styles pane that Freeway Pro
has created a new temporary style for your list. Edit that style by opening
the Style Editor window and selecting it. Tick the box to make it
permanent, then change the Name to the same name that you chose for your
class name. Now set the Font, Color, Size attributes for your list in this
style – DO NOT try to set spacing or margin attributes like paragraph
attributes here, that will take a second style. If you want to remove the
bullets, open the Extended Style interface and create a new attribute -
list-style - with a value of - none. If you also want to remove the left
indent, then you can simply use the Left Indent setting in the Style Editor
under the Paragraph attributes (I know, I said NO paragraph attributes yet,
but this one is okay).
Now, the last step of the EASY method is the hardest, and only applies if
you want to set specific paragraph attributes like spacing after the list
items (li are the html tags for ‘list items’). You must create a new Tag
style… do this by creating a new style then let’s name it in a way that
targets the specific list item tag. In the Tag field of this new style,
first type the name of our list class group PRECEDED BY A PERIOD (or STOP
if you are not yet American) then follow with a space and finish with the
letters li (lowercase LI for “list item”, like this,
.myclassname li
and make sure to backspace out the auto-generated name in the Name field so
it is empty. Now feel free to set the Space After attribute to open up the
space after each line. Close and preview. Adjust as necessary.
With this method you must leave this new page intact, or Freeway will not
apply the style. There are ways around that, but this lesson is long enough
already.
With the ADVANCED method you do not create a new page or list, you simply
create the styles in the Style Editor just like the last step of the EASY
method. The biggest difference is making BOTH styles as Tag styles (DON’T
forget the leading period or ‘stop’ and backspacing the Name field clean).
Try this out and let’s see if we can fix your problem.
