If you are trying to change the "default" indentation by modifying the List
Paragraph style, you won't succeed.

Instead, create a paragraph style with the desired numbering setup, and
store the style in your template.

For a single-level list you should use the Adjust List Indents dialog box to
set the indentation that you want. Just right-click a list item and choose
Adjust List Indents from the context menu (or click to select the actual
paragraph number, which is sometimes more reliable, and then right-click).

Hello,

I'm increasingly annoyed with the autoformatting behaviour in Word 2007.
The
problem is, no matter what I do, Word applies indents of 0.63cm for all
autoformatted lists.

I've tried changing the styles, but you can't seem to access the indents
for
the default list styles. I can make the changes I need to multi-level
lists
and I can easily apply changes to lists created. The List Paragraph
formatting now reads: "Indent: Left: 1 cm, Hanging: 0.5 cm, Right: 1
cm,
Left, Bulleted + Level: 1 + Aligned at: 1 cm + Indent at: 1.63 cm, Based
on: Normal". I can see exactly what needs to be changed, but I can't find
a
way to change it.

The problem is, I'm not the only one using the template I'm trying to
create
and other people won't make these manual changes. So I need to know if
this
can be changed or not.

Thanks,
Geoff.
