between a tab stop, a space, or nothing. If you select the tab stop,
you can specify the position of the tab.
• Indent at: how much space is reserved for the numbering
symbol, measured from the left page margin. The alignment of
the first line of the list is also affected by any tab you may have
set to follow the numbering.
• Aligned at: the position of the numbering symbol, measured from
the left margin of the page.
• Numbering alignment: how the numbering (including any text
before or after as set in the Options page) will be aligned. The
Aligned at value determines the symbol alignment.

Note
When defining an indentation different from 0, the position of
the tabulation is not considered.
Tip
In normal circumstances, setting the Numbering followed by
distance to be equal to the Indent at distance works well. See
Figure 247 for a graphic representation of the effects of the
above parameters.
