Add text bullets to a C# form

Question

I am creating a form in C# and need to display text on the form. I need some of the text to show up in a bulleted, unordered list. Is it possible to do this while using a label?

Answer 1

You can use ASCII or UniCode characters, and reformat your string to replace a marker character with the formatting character.

Say you defined your string like so:

var myMessage = "To continue please selected one of the actions below: * Click ButtonA to do this action. * Click ButtonB to do this action."

you could do a Regex.Replace that looked for asterisks and converted to bullets:

var formattedString = Regex.Replace(myMessage, "\*", "\r\n \u2022");

Since the string was defined on one line, we also put in a newline ("\r\n").
