Bullets Missing

I am new to Miro. I am creating my first board not using a template, just basic shapes as text boxes, replicating a board I originally created in Milanote. I am going to be using bullets quite a bit, but the option to add bullets doesn’t appear to be available anywhere. I tried following instructions I found online, but still no bullets. Am I missing something? Thanks!

The Shape object does not support bullet/numbered lists. Instead, please use the Text (or Doc object).

 

From the Shapes help center article:

Adding text to shapes

To add text to a shape, select it and start typing. Shapes have a limit of 6,000 symbols.

Feel free to use different text formatting options: you can change the text size, font, style, alignment, color and highlight the text. Note that bullet points are not supported in shapes, please use text instead.
