So there I was playing with the list settings (and by playing I mean I was restlessly and desperately clicking absolutely everything I could click) then voilà- problem solved! I got tired of jumping from site to site, so I just took matters into my own hands. Either that or some (if not most) of them just had too many steps my poor old brain couldn't comprehend, and that I perhaps failed to do properly, or at all. I was looking for a solution for a while but none of them worked. Image source: Indent changes automatically when bullet number 10 is reached. As such, the solution provided below is only for numbered lists- at least, I believe? Note: I only have a problem with numbered lists. Though if I'm being completely honest, I don't quite yet understand how it works as I've never had to use it. I've tried recreating the abovementioned problem with a bulleted list, but I found that the indent remains consistent throughout (meaning I have no issues when it comes to bulleted lists).Īfterward, I tried the same with a multilevel list, but nothing happened there either. I later noticed upon typing up a particular pie recipe (with noticeably long, meticulous instructions) that from number 10 (and so on) in my numbered list, the text automatically shifts farther to the right. I am currently in the process of digitizing old family recipes.įor procedures/directions/instructions, I use numbered lists for convenience.
