• Numbering alignment: select in the drop-down menu how the
numbering (including any text before or after) should be aligned.
Tip
To fully appreciate how the Numbering alignment works, try to
create a numbered list with more than ten elements and make
sure that enough room has been made for numbers with two or
more digits. You may also wish to right-align numbers 10 or
greater, as in Figure 248 on page 262.
Options page
Use the Options page, shown in Figure 247, to alter the style of all the
outline levels. The options available on this page depend on the type of
marker selected for the list. Select first the level you want to modify on
the left hand side of the box. To modify all ten levels at once, select 1 –
10 as the level. If you started from a predefined outline, some of the
levels will already have settings.
Figure 247: The Options page for a list style
Depending on the numbering style selected in the Numbering box
(bullet, graphic, numbering), some of the following options become
available on the page:
• Before: enter any text to appear before the number (for example,
Step).
• After: enter any text to appear after the number (for example, a
punctuation mark).
• Color: pick the color for the list marker (number or bullet
character).
