Outline style indents are applied on top of paragraph indents. If a paragraph has a left
indent of 12 pt, and the indent for an outline style's first level is 6 pt, a paragraph at level
1 would visually be indented by 18 pt.
Each level can have a bullet or numbering style, or neither. To assign a bullet or numbering
style to a level, choose an option in the Bullet or Numbering Style column for that level.
This diagram illustrates the relationship between level indents and bullet outsets. Numbering
outsets work the same way.
The Include Lower Levels/Separator column lets you choose to append the numbers
from lower levels to the beginning of a number, and to specify how the numbers from the
various levels are separated. For example, if you check this box for level 3 and specify a
period as the separator, the numbering for level-3 text might look like this:
1.3.1 This paragraph is at level 3.
1.3.2 This paragraph is at level 3.
1.3.3 This paragraph is at level 3.
To change the character inserted between levels for a given level, double-click to the right
of the Include Lower Levels/Separator check box and enter a new character or characters.
When you include numbers from lower levels and use left or center number alignment,
there is a chance the numbers can extend to be longer than the number outset and
potentially overlap the text. To address this possibility, there is a paragraph attribute called
Minimum Bullet/Number Distance from Text (Style > Formats > Formats tab). If a
number's length becomes longer than the number outset, the application moves the
paragraph text to the right so that there is always this much distance between the number
and the text.
