Flush left bulleted lists

Post by gdickens »

I am working on a book that needs single-spaced flush-left bulleted lists. I was able to make the bulleted lists single spaced using the mdwlist package, but I am having trouble making the lists flush left instead of indented.

I am very new to this, so any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Flush left bulleted lists

Hi,

instead of mdwlist, I would recommend the enumitem package. Take a look at the following example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{enumitem}

\setitemize{label=\textbullet, leftmargin=*, nolistsep}

\begin{document}

\begin{itemize}
  \item First item.
  \item Second item.
\end{itemize}

\end{document}
Please refer to the package documentation for further information.
