Next-Level List Bullets With CSS ::marker Posted: 08 Aug 2021 06:08 AM PDT In this tutorial we'll be working with the ::marker pseudo-element, which gives us styling access to the "marker box" on list items. We can then use it to replace default list bullets with icons, text, SVG; almost whatever we like! Let's take a look. What We're Creating Video Tutorial The Structure of a List Item Lists and list items have been around since HTML was first conceived, and whilst we've always been able to style them designers have never really paid much attention to their structure. List items have a bullet, and a bit of text, right? Their official definition describes list items as comprising a principal block box, with a marker box to indicate a bullet. To style list items what we usually do is remove the bullets and add extra elements (often pseudo-elements, or background images) to create our own. Nowadays, however, as part of the CSS pseudo-element module 4, we have a new element called marker to play with. This gives us direct access to the marker box (so direct access to the bullet) generated by the browser.  Allowed CSS Marker Properties We can use this direct access to style bullets to some extent. Currently there's a limited number of properties available: font-* properties white-space color direction content animation transition We can't currently use background styling, nor margin, padding, width, height etc. But even with the properties we do have, we can still create some pretty cool-looking bullets! Browser Support Browser Support is pretty good, with all major browsers supporting use of marker. And any older, non-supporting browsers will simply ignore any marker styling and display whatever default or fallback bullet styling is defined. So there's no reason not to use marker! List-style-type Example I go over more examples in the video tutorial (as you can see from the demo) but for now I'd like to begin by demonstrating the "old" way of doing things. We can use list-style-type to define what the bullet should be: li { list-style-type: '> '; } This will simply replace the bullet on our custom list items with a > . And we can put whatever text we like in this value. Even an emoji! We can also use the color property here to change the text of whatever text is in the marker box, and in the main block. This does, unfortunately, mean you can't color each part separately. Marker Example Now let's see how the marker pseudo-element can help us. In a similar example we can target the marker specifically by using li::marker. li::marker { color: green; } By changing the color in this way we change only the bullet, not the text within the list item. Check out this example, where I've targeted all the ::marker elements, made them green, and then targeted just the second-child and made it large and blue. To change what the bullet itself is you can use the content: ''; property and add characters like we did in the first example with list-style-type . Again, emojis work too. Non-List Items as List Items It's possible you'd like to display some of your elements as list items, even if that's not what they are. For example, using the display property we can change the way a paragraph appears, and then target its ::marker too! p { display: list-item; } p::marker { content: '❤️'; } Styling Ordered Lists Ordered Lists can be manipulated just as well. Numbering is usually very important where ordered lists are used, so let's jazz up our numbers by changing the content to a text string with the list-item counter appended to it: ol li::marker { content: 'Step ' counter(list-item); color: green; } ol li:hover::marker { color : blue; } We've also added a hover style to this list, changing the color of the marker when the mouse cursor hovers over it. And to take that hover even further you can use transitions on the color too. You'll notice the padding is cramped on these list items, and that's because I removed all padding by default. To put that back, add it to the li element. Using SVG as Marker For our last example let's use an SVG icon as the marker! We can do this by encoding an SVG as a Data URI (see this encoder to get you the code you want) and pasting it directly into the CSS like so: li::marker { content: url("Data URI goes in here"); } Conclusion That should have given you a solid start for customizing your own list bullets with CSS! Let us know on social media what you manage to create. Useful Resources CodePen Demo ::marker Browser Support HTML Lists

How to Quickly Make a Flower PPT Slide Deck When you've chosen the PowerPoint template with flowers you wish to use, you can proceed with customizing it. In this next section, I'm going to show you the five steps you can take to customize the flower PPT to your needs. I'm using The Flowers PowerPoint Template from Envato Elements in the following tutorial. I selected this premium PPT template because all of its elements are editable right within PowerPoint.  Every element of The Flowers PowerPoint template (premium) can be edited in PowerPoint. I'm on Microsoft PowerPoint for Mac version 16.51. If you're on a different version of PowerPoint, then the interface may be different for you. Follow these steps to customize a flower slides template: 1. Copy the Flower Slides Template Upon downloading the flower PowerPoint template, make a copy of the template files in your computer. This way, you always have the original files if you want to revert to them. To copy the template, right-click on it, then select Duplicate. 2. Customize the Fonts If the PowerPoint template uses Slide Masters, now's the time to customize the Fonts. Click on View > Slide Master. Select a text section on a Slide Master. Then, click on the Home tab and choose the font settings you wish to use. If the flower slides template you're using isn't based on Slide Masters, customize the fonts after adding your content to the template. 3. Add Your Content Now it's time to add your own content to the PowerPoint template. To add your text, double-click inside a text box to select the placeholder text. Type your text. Follow the instructions in the template for how to add your images. In this case, the template says, "Click icon to add picture." This brings up Finder, where we can locate the image file we want to add. Click on the image file name, then click Insert. Follow the template instructions to insert your image.  And just like that, our picture has been added to the slide and the template's picture mask has been applied automatically. This premium flower PPT template makes adding images easy. (Image Source) 4. Configure the Slide Color Theme The Flowers PowerPoint Template, like other premium templates, comes with five color themes to choose from. If you'd like to use different colors, you can do so. Click on the Design tab, then choose one of the color themes from the selection. The new color theme will be applied globally to all the slides. You can also change the color of each element individually. 5. Delete Unused Slides After you've added your text and images, go ahead and delete the slide layouts you won't be using. 5 Quick Floral-Use Slide Design Tips for 2021 PowerPoint Presentations Now that you've chosen your flower template here are some design tips to get you started: 1. Minimalism A prominent design trend is to have templates with a minimal flower PowerPoint background. Another part of the minimal trend is to use minimal text and to use more space for illustrations than for text.  The minimal trend even applies to the color scheme of the template. Flower slides that have a color scheme with just two colors are standard with the minimal design trend. Minimal design doesn't overwhelm your audience and must be pleasing to the eye. Blossom is one of many premium minimal floral PowerPoint templates on Envato Elements.

Use Negative Space Negative space is a blank space between your content on your flower slide. This trend is basically about not overcrowding your slides. Overcrowding your flower slides looks sloppy. Also, a slide without enough negative space makes it hard for the audience to know what you want them to concentrate on. 3. Vibrant Color Using vibrant colors or having a vibrant color scheme for your flower PowerPoint templates is an easy way to brighten up your flower presentation. Bright colors make the presentation less boring and make it more attention-grabbing for the audience. Using vibrant colors can make your presentation stand out because everyone else will be using black and white. There are many vibrant premium floral PowerPoint templates on Envato Elements. 4. Consistency When putting together floral PowerPoint templates remain consistent throughout the flower presentation. Stick to one theme throughout your presentation.  It's best to use the same font and colors throughout your whole presentation. Using too many fonts and themes makes your slideshow look sloppy or even chaotic. A sloppy slideshow looks unprofessional and distracts the audience from your presentation points. 5. Use Visuals Visuals can help you to get an emotional point across to your audience. Visuals can also help you explain difficult topics. They also help you break up the text so that you don't have a wall of text on your flower presentation. Visuals you can use on your flowery PowerPoint template include: images icons illustrations  and videos   Flower is a beautiful premium flower template from Envato Elements. Flower PPT Design Trends for 2021 Flower designs are a classic. They'll never go out of style. With that said, specific flower trends come and go. Here are the top flower design trends for 2021, as inspired by design trends in the floral industry: 1. Sunny Yellow Optimistic yellow, a Pantone Color of the Year for 2021, is applied to this premium flower PPT template. (Image Source) A bright, sunny yellow called Illuminating is a Pantone Color of the Year for 2021. Characterized as "warming and optimistic," it embodies the hopeful and upbeat attitude we all need this year. 2. Calming Flowers Awareness about mental health is higher than ever, and this is reflected in floral designs. Another trend is to use flowers that have a calming effect. These include clematis, yarrow, lavender, and any flower that's blue or light lilac in color. 3. Minimalist Minimalist design has been around since the 1950s and it's never gone out of style. Minimalism means paring down something to its most essential elements. You can apply this approach to your floral PowerPoint. 4. Unexpected Unexpected elements like dark flowers or backgrounds can make a floral PPT template pop (premium example). Another trend is to be anti-trend, or to go against what's popular. The resulting design is unexpected and surprising. For your flower PPT, this can mean using dried flowers, dark colored flowers, and floral that evoke winter. 5. Personalized Feel free to express yourself in a premium floral PowerPoint template. Yet another design trend is personalization. This means instead of letting popularity dictate your floral design choices, you choose designs that have meaning for you. It's not about following trends but expressing yourself and following what appeals to you.   Discover More Stylish PowerPoint Presentation Templates Designs for 2021 Now you've looked at both premium templates and free templates.
