Hello I need, with my windows PC using publisher, to align a bulleted list so that the text is completely on the right of the bullet.

In the picture attached I've drawn a red dotted line where I'd like that all the text of the paragraph would be.

I guess it's a problem of indentation but I do not know how to figure it out.

Thanks for any help

Use the indent options, for instance:

• MacBookPro Retina 15" |  macOS 10.14.6  | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1  
• iPad 10.Gen.  |  iOS 18.5.  |  Affinity V2.6

I'm sorry but I do not manage to incorporate in the text style.

I didn't type any tab character in the text frame. If possible I'd like to incorporate in the style in order to have a bulleted text that automatically indents all the lines at the right of the bullet.

I didn't specify that I use Publisher V2 for windows, sorry.

Thanks in any case

That is the way that the built-in Text Styles for Bullets and for Numbering work, so you should be able to simply use them, or model yours after them. 

If you can provide a sample document (.afpub) we can tell you what you've done wrong. Or if you can provide a screenshot that shows the Paragraph panel (or the Paragraph Text Styles in the Text Styles panel) we can point out the setting that is incorrect.

Or, here's a screenshot from my iPad that shows the two relevant settings from Bullet 1:

The trick is to make the Tab distance the same as the Left Indent and then set the First Line indent to 0 (zero).

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
