Phil_rose Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Hello everyone, I am laying out a small piece and I am attaching a screenshot of it as a currently looks. A thing I've always had trouble with and which I can't believe there is and a solution to, is the second line indent. In this instance the words resource and through theft need to be indented to a line beneath the letter Y of you above. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this that I can find but I'm sure I'm missing something. Can anyone help? Thanks very much, Phil Quote I like turtles!

Alfred Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 I’m sure someone will be able to provide a solution, Phil, but please tell us which Affinity app you’re using. Meanwhile, I’d like to take this opportunity to point out that the words ask a question but there are no question marks in sight: just periods throughout, apart from the first bullet point. And you don’t need the word “having” between the words “risk” and “losing”. Oh, and “non-replaceable” is missing its first “e”. jmwellborn 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen)

Thanks very much, Phil There is also a very easy way to do this if you don't want to fiddle with bullet styles. Just adjust your text ruler, per the example below. ( I didn't bother with a bullet. Just used a period at the beginning.) The ruler adjustment does the trick. Set your tab stop by clicking on the text ruler (you will get the black L), then drag the small black horizontal line from the bottom left of the text ruler directly under your tab stop. Drag the right ruler marker (the black triangle from the right of the text ruler to the point (under the 12p mark in my example) where you want your right margin to be. Hope this isn't as clear as mud. Alfred 1 Quote 24" iMAC Apple M1 chip, 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 16 GB unified memory, 1 TB SSD storage, Ventura 13.6.7. Photo, Publisher, Designer 1.10.5, and 2.5.5.

Phil_rose Posted May 16, 2019 Author Posted May 16, 2019 Thanks all. I meant to mention I'm in Designer though I could switch if necessary. Thanks for the proof reading. There is a large ? Underneath this whole piece which will be evident when I export. After looking at other solutions offered here. Thanks again! Alfred 1 Quote I like turtles!

I was following what Walt Farrell said: "If you are in Publisher." Hopefully you will take a look at the latest Publisher Beta, offered in these Forums, and see if it won't be worth it for you, once the retail version is ready. Having Photo, Designer, and Publisher all working together so seamlessly is going to be wonderful, and all minus the monthly pay-up-or-else from That Other Outfit.

Phil_rose Posted May 16, 2019 Author Posted May 16, 2019 Oh, I do have Publisher. I just thought that, since this has a smaller amount of text, Designer would be a better choice. I'll relay in Publisher. jmwellborn 1 Quote I like turtles!

Phil_rose Posted May 16, 2019 Author Posted May 16, 2019 Well, look at that! Thank you so much. But look at your Paragraph box. It's ordered differently in the beta than in the current version, I guess. Quote I like turtles!
