Creating a new outline level
1) If necessary, press
Enter
to begin a new line.
2) Press
Tab
. Each time you press
Tab
the line indents to the next
outline level. Pressing
Enter
creates a new line at the same level
as the previous one. To return to the previous level, press
Shift+Tab
.
In the AutoLayout text boxes, promoting or demoting an item in the list
corresponds to applying a different outline style, so the second outline
level corresponds to Outline 2 style, the third to Outline 3 style, and so
on.
Note
Unlike styles in Writer, do not try to change the outline level
by selecting the text and then clicking the desired outline
style. Due to the way the presentation styles work, it is not
possible to apply them in this way.
Changing the appearance of the list
You can fully customize the appearance of a list, changing the bullet
type or numbering for the entire list or for single entry. All of the
changes can be made using the Bullets and Numbering dialog, which is
accessed by selecting Format > Bullets and Numbering or by
clicking on the Bullets and Numbering icon on the text formatting
toolbar.
For the entire list:
1) Select the entire list or click on the gray border of the text box so
that just the green resizing handles are displayed.
2) Select Format > Bullets and Numbering or click on the
Bullets and Numbering icon.
3) The Bullets and Numbering dialog contains five tabs: Bullets,
Numbering type, Graphics, Position, and Customize.
If a bullet list is needed, select the desired bullet style from
the six default styles available on the
Bullets
page.
If a graphics style is needed, select one from those available
on the
Graphics
page.
If a numbered list is needed, select one of the 6 default
numbering styles on the
Numbering type
page.
For a single line in the list:
1) Click anywhere in the line to place the cursor in it.
2) Follow steps 2–4 of the previous instruction set.
