Ahh, what I gave you was the keys to just make a bullet symbol. I
haven't played around with Pages enough to know how to make a bulleted
list out of, say, several lines of selected text. I fiffled a bit and it
seems like you first have to type your lines of text. Then I used
shift+arrows to select the lines and then I did a Show Inspector
(command+option+i). Across the top of that window are 10 radio buttons
and #4 is the Text button. Once you pick this (VO-space) you'll find all
kinds of options to apply to your selected text stored in four tabs
labeled text, list, tabs and more. Select the list tab and then under
that you'll find options for indent and bullet style. Once you've picked
those you can switch windows back to the main Pages window with
command-tilde (top left below the esc key on my keyboard) but you can't
get back that way. To get back you can either do command-option-I to
close the inspector and then do it again to open the inspector which
sucks your focus to it, or you can use the window chooser (vo-f2 twice).
The window chooser names the inspector as whatever tab you last left
open. So if you left the inspector on the "text" tab then that will be
name of the window, vs. Wrap, Links or any the other 10 tabs. A bit
confusing they do it that way.
Hope this helps.

Thanks very much Chris. I shall try out the bullet points thing and see if it
works for me. Really I was looking for like how in word for Windows you can
write your list, then select it and then select bullet points. With your
command here, do I need to do that before I write each part of the list, or if
I select them and then press the command will that make them all bullets?
Thanks.

The paging keys are just the arrow keys with the Function key added. So
function+up/down is page up/down while function+left is home and function+right
is end.
Are you asking about how to type bullets or how to make a bulleted list. I
don't use Pages all that much but generally typing Option+8 make a bullet
character.

Hi all,
I ask the below questions because I can find no answer in the keyboard help,
the VO help or the Pages help. Though I'm sure they're there somewhere, I'm
just not looking in the right place.
1. General navigation question: Where are the page up/down and home/end keys
located on the MBP keyboard?
2. A pages specific question: how do I insert bullet point markers?
Many thanks.
Kirsten.
