The long tick marks on the ruler show the default tab stops. If you click the
ruler to set your own tabs, the ruler displays a small, L-shaped marker at each
custom tab stop. You can delete a custom tab stop by dragging the marker off
the ruler.
To create paragraphs with hanging indentation
1 If the ribbon is active, double-click a multiline text object to open the
MTEXT ribbon contextual tab. If the ribbon is not active, the In-Place
Text Editor is displayed.
2 Select the paragraphs you want to indent.
3 On the ruler, slide the top indent marker to where you want the first line
of the paragraphs to start.
NOTE The ruler displays the tabs and indents that are set for the selected
paragraphs or, if no text is selected, the paragraph where the cursor is located.
The default tab stops are the long tick marks on the ruler. To set a custom
tab stop, click the ruler where you want the tab stop.
4 Slide the bottom indent marker to where you want the other lines of the
paragraphs to start.
This step indents turnover lines in paragraphs that are more than one
line long.
5 To change the indentation, select the paragraphs you want to change,
click the ruler to set new tab stops, if needed, and move the indent
markers.
6 To save your changes and exit the editor, use one of the following
methods:
■ On the MTEXT ribbon contextual tab, in the Close panel, click Close
Text Editor.
■ Click in the drawing outside the editor.
