You can adjust the following settings for each individual level or all at once (to make
them all the same). It is generally easier to adjust the settings in the order given
below, instead of the order on the dialog box. That is, start from the overall
indentation for the list elements, then fix the position of the symbols, and finally
adjust the alignment of the symbols.
• Numbering followed by: the character to follow the numbering symbol (plus
any characters—for example a punctuation mark—chosen on the Options page
to appear after the number). Choose between a tab stop, a space, or nothing. If
you select the tab stop, you can specify the position of the tab.
• Indent at: how much space is reserved for the numbering symbol, measured
from the left page margin. The alignment of the first line of the list is also
affected by any tab you may have set to follow the numbering.
• Aligned at: the position of the numbering symbol, measured from the left
margin of the page.
• Numbering alignment: how the numbering (including any text before or
after as set in the Options page) will be aligned. The Aligned at value
determines the symbol alignment.
Note
When defining an indentation different from 0, the position of the
tabulation is not considered.
