Bug Making and removing bulleting - trying

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on creating and removing bullet points in a list format. Users successfully created a bulleted list of math subjects and then removed the bullets using the editing tools in a WYSIWYG editor. The process involved highlighting the list, selecting the bullet tool, and saving changes, resulting in a clean list without enumeration. A test was also conducted on a dotted bullet list, which was similarly removed using the same method. The conversation highlights the functionality of the editor in Windows 10 and Google Chrome.

This is only to form a bulleted list and then try to remove the bulleting. That's all.

  1. Basic Mathematics
  2. Pre-Algebra
  3. Algebra 1
  4. Geometry
  5. Algebra 2
Making the same list, but then trying to remove bullets:
Basic Mathematics
Pre-Algebra
Algebra 1
Geometry
Algebra 2
If this works, the enumeration should be gone from the second copy of the list.

That worked as I hoped.
Selected EDIT; highlighted the numbered list with mouse, clicked on the numbered-bullets tool, clicked outside of the list, clicked SAVE CHANGES, and the post showed just the list without the enumeration.

Next, someone should test this using not with the numbers, but with the dotted bullets to see if they too can be removed.

Testing the dotted bullet list removal of the dotted bullets:

Pre-Calculus
Calculus 1
Calculus 2
Calculus 3
Differential Equations And Linear Algebra

I see the dotted bullets while composing the first time.
Now, I just highlighted the list and clicked the bullet tool, and then clicked outside the list.
Bullets GONE.

Not know if important, but Windows 10, Google Chrome browser.

You can use the regular editor to add/remove codes as you like. WYSIWYG editors are always messy if you want anything more than the most basic options.
 
I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...
This came up in my job today (UXP). Never thought to raise it here on PF till now. Hyperlinks really should be underlined at all times. PF only underlines them when they are rolled over. Colour alone (especially dark blue/purple) makes it difficult to spot a hyperlink in a large block of text (or even a small one). Not everyone can see perfectly. Even if they don't suffer from colour deficiency, not everyone has the visual acuity to distinguish two very close shades of text. Hover actions...
About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
