Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Bullets Numbering
HI :) Ah, i like that. Another way seems to be to do all the numbering really close together as is default and then go back through the list and press enter on it's own to add an extra line. Of course it's also possible to configure your styles so that lists behave slightly differently to the body-text Regards from Tom :) On 23 March 2014 03:03, Tim Deaton t...@timdeaton.org wrote: On 3/22/2014 9:17 AM, Alexander Thurgood wrote: Le 22/03/14 10:07, A a écrit : Hi, I've tried various things, none of them will give me the above structure.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Bullets Numbering
If you intend to use this Bullets and numbering you want a lot, I would create a style for it, may be call it legal style. You can then apply it repeatedly with a couple of clicks and copy it to other documents. steve On 2014-03-22 02:59, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) So that is Format - Bullets and Numbering then select any roughly near what you are looking for from the Outline tab and click on the last tab Options to fix it the way you like Regards from Tom :) On 21 March 2014 10:32, Alex Thurgood alex.thurg...@gmail.com wrote: Le 21/03/2014 10:39, A a écrit : Is it possible?
