Hi,

I need to make a enumerate without any indents (Special thanks to our
CI-Team). Has anybody a solution?

Thanks

Stefan

Hi,

You can fine-tune the enumerate indent with \itemindent
example:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\def\t{This is a test\space}
\begin{document}
\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\begin{enumerate}
\itemindent=-13pt%
\item 1
\item 2
\item 3
\end{enumerate}
\end{document}

Regards,

Thank you. Another solution -just found- is to set
\leftmargini
\leftmarginii
\leftmarginiii
\leftmarginiv

Regards

Hi there.

I feel like this is a silly question - I think I'm probably not asking
it correctly which is why I've not found an answer, however:

I have a number of enumerate environments in a thesis I'm typesetting.
I'm using package enumerate to make putting roman numerals in easier,
but one thing I've noticed is that while the other list environments are
fine, the enumerate one is flush against the leftmost margin instead of
indented. I'd like to move the whole list in like this:

Some text:
1 blah blah
2 blah blah blah
3 Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet some more latin text and something else
blach blach blach
4 blah blah

Nothing I've tried seems to work - can anyone offer advice?

Note that on page 4 I've used \itemindent to bump things in, with the
side-effect seen on page 11.

Thanks,
Aled.

If I am not mistaken, that's bug "tools/3198" in the LaTeX bug
database. I think that bug report has a suggested fix, but it's been a
while since I checked.
