Formating limitations

Hello,

I’ve just started using Pickaxe and have so many ideas to develop. After the first couple of uses, I realized the challenge is still big.

When using prompts, I try to be as clear and simple as possible, but it appears some things are impossible.

For instance, I’m providing guidelines for a format needed for upcoming responses.

I want the line starting with “-”. I then provide some examples:
ex:

  • 40m at 50%
  • 1m30s at 100%

I’ve try to explain extensively, and correct the bot, but I can only get the results in “bullet list” and not using “-”

Any idea how to solve that ?

It should be fairly simple to get a bulleted list. If you’re trying to get different font sizes and indentations, that is more complicated. Can you provide a link to your tool?

The nuance is that I actually need “-” and not bullets. It seems the bot/software is unable to format the results with “-” …

Ah, the chatbot interface automatically renders markdown which means all “-” symbols are rendered as bullet points. If you copy/paste the output, does it come out as bullet points or the properly formatted “-” symbols?

Hello,

Yes, when I copy past, it pastes with stars instead of dash

Warm-Up (15 minutes)

  • 0-5 minutes: Easy spin at 60-70% FTP (RPE 4-5).
  • 5-10 minutes: Gradually increase to 70-80% FTP (RPE 6-7).
  • 10-15 minutes: Include 3 x 20-second high-cadence spin-ups (110-120 RPM) with 40 seconds easy spinning in between.

Main Set (4x 10-Minute Intervals)

  • 1st Interval:
    • 0-2 minutes: Effort at 120% FTP (RPE 8-9).
    • 2-10 minutes: Maintain 85-90% FTP (RPE 6-7).
  • Recovery:
    • 5 minutes: Easy spin at 50-60% FTP (RPE 2-3).

Well unfortunately getting dashes the way you want them will be very hard, because the chatbot rendering system will render them as bullet points. I would encourage you to play around and see if you can prompt around it.
