balqan Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Hi all, Is there a way to control bullet list indenting, in order to have the second line with the same indent as the first, like in this example? Thanks, Balqan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v_kyr Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Works for me in a text frame in AD Mac, a Shift-Return indents the second line to the same level.

Old Bruce Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 You are best served with a Paragraph Style for this, even if it is temporary. Set the Left indent to what ever and then just set the First Line indent to 0 (zero) and you may need to use the Shift + Return which v_kyr mentioned if you use Artistic Text as opposed to the Frame Text in my example.

balqan Posted June 16, 2019 Author Share Posted June 16, 2019 Thanks a lot, v_kyr and Bruce. This is what I was looking for. It would be great if one day we could have more control over the space between the bullet and the text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to add a tab stop and apply it. I have the line indents set to 0 and 36 pts for first and left.

Bilbo Bowman Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Adding a Shift-Return or extra tabs are quick and easy workarounds, although it may need to be adjusted should any text be added or removed in that particular bullet point. Indenting the remaining lines via a paragraph style is probably the best way to accomplish the task at present in my opinion, although the Bulleted List / Numbered List feature should be smart enough to look after this automatically as in InDesign. With that said, I'm still loving Publisher so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only added the tab to the style. Not the text. The text is just the nonsense from filler text.
