I think I figured out the issues. I loaded a "Made to Tag" plugin recently and I guess it creates a different set of default keystrokes under the keyboard options. When I changed it back to "Default" it allowed me to use all the keystrokes, incl. making the lowly bullet 🙂 ••• Thanks everyone for your help!

Hi @janicevaneck:

It's working fine for me.

Mac OS 11.6
InDesign 2022 17.0.1

And @JonathanArias, I use bullets as separators, for example:

Fine here (Mac 17.0.1). If this is a mainstream professional font, it should have a glyph associated to option-8. Some "free" or custom-built fonts may not have it if they didn't design one in.
