Change to li from p after using Ctrl+;
Change to li from p after using Ctrl+;
I'm brand new to Flare and discovered the handy Ctrl+; at the end of a list item to inset a picture on the next line that is in line with the list. My problem is that I now need to add another li after my li that I ended with Ctrl+; but before my image, and can't figure out how to do so. Can anyone help?

Re: Change to li from p after using Ctrl+;
The easiest way might be to create another <li> tag after the existing <li> tag that contains the image.
Do Ctrl+; again on the new list item, add your text and hit Enter to get a new empty <p>, and then drag the image down to the new <p>.
This should leave your previous <li> tag on its own with a <p> tag. (If you have additional empty <p> tags somehow, delete them.)
Click inside the text of the previous <li> tag and then click Make Simple Item(s) in the List Actions function button/menu on the Home tab. That will convert it back to just an <li> tag, just to keep things tidy.
The shortcut for Make Simple Item(s) is Shift+Tab, but it doesn't seem to work on an <li> tag with a single <p> inside.

Re: Change to li from p after using Ctrl+;
After inserting an image (or any other continuation paragraph, it works for text as well as pictures) I press the right arrow key on my keyboard until the highlight in the structure bar changes to highlight the ul rather than the p or li, and then press Return. I admit, I sometimes have to give it a couple of goes because I haven't pressed the right arrow key the right number of times, but I eventually get there without having to think too much.

Never mind. I started to write something and then realized I was just writing what atomdocs already wrote.

For this situation, if you want to get rid of the p tag (the one on the same line as the li) you can "unbind" the paragraph by clicking somewhere on the line and then pressing Ctrl+Shift+U.atomdocs wrote:The shortcut for Make Simple Item(s) is Shift+Tab, but it doesn't seem to work on an <li> tag with a single <p> inside.
