Changing default indents for lists (Word 2007)
In previous versions of Word this was relatively easy. I'm pretty adept with
Office products, but as far as I can see this is no longer possible. Can someone confirm or enlighten me? I don't like the indents that Word 2007 imposes on bulleted and numbered lists -- it wastes a lt of space and for me is difficult to visually scan. I prefer my first levels of bullets (or numbers) to appear so that the bullet is lined up with the left margin with a hanging indent of 0.25". Then I like the second level of bullets to be at 0.25" with a hanging indent of 0.5", etc. Harder to describe than I thought. It would look like this (unless this support forum removes my extra spaces; then it might look like a mess): ----------------- This is my regular paragraph text. * Here's my first-level bulleted text - Here's my second-level bulleted text Here's my third-level bulleted text ----------------- I continually have to adjust each bullet level, because I can't seem to figure out a way to tell Word that I want this system as my default. Further frustrating is the fact that even in a particular document, when I adjust the indents in one list and then create another list further down the document, the second and future levels revert. I have to adjust them again. It doesn't seem Word 2007 is as smart about these things as it used to be. Am I missing something? Thanks! |
