Issue/situation:
In Publisher I've created a bullet list, but I am not sure how to keep a multi-line bullet-point indent so it aligns with the other entries. 

Question:
Which settings do I need to change to make a multiline entry align with the other entries?

Screenshots:
See attached screenshot of the issue and my bullet point settings.

Operating system:
OSX Catalina 10.15.6

Affinity Photo:
Version 1.8.4

Unusual hardware:
Wacom tablet Intuos pro

Any help or input on this matter is much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

PS: if this post is in the wrong forum, then please let me know, and I will submit it in another.

Add a tabstop and set alignment to left, You can see the indents and tabstops under the Paragraph panel.

That is a possibility but it's not a particular elegant solution.
Adding tab stops will 'kill' the text flow when I add and remove from the paragraphs so I am looking for a solution that will keep lines together in the bullet list.

Under the spacing menu of the paragraph style you are creating do you have an indent set?

Ive just noticed how you have your Text: bullet set with a space before the bullet which screws up the indent. Is that intentional?

Yes it's so it aligns with the rest of the layout. Joachim_L solution worked as I subsituted my "First line indent" with "Left Indent" and that sorted the issue! thanks though.
