Is it possible to define a paragraph style such that the before-text indent is relative to the before-text indent of the previous line, or something like that? I'm not even sure how to express this.
For example, suppose in a hierarchical document (e.g. one of those horrible army-style 8.13.12.29 arrangements) wherein each heading is indented relative to the indent of the next-higher-level heading. At the moment, for the headings, I've just defined 5 separate paragraph styles that are essentially identical except font size and space-above, but most importantly, the before-text indent. Likewise, for the text below the headings, I've just defined 5 separate paragraph styles that are identical except for the before-text indent. This is kind of annoying, but it's not too too bad. But then, suppose I define a pair of paragraph styles for questions and answers. These have hanging indents, so that if the question or the answer is longer than one line, the "Q. " or the "A. " sticks out to the left. And one or the other has additional spacing before or after. Looks great. Now I want to have a group of questions and answers somewhere under a level-three heading, amidst level-three text. The Q&A lines are still flush with the left margin. It would/will be a real pain in the neck to have to design 5 versions of every paragraph style. Is there a way around this? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
