Can one change the default formatting and indentation of bullets?
Michael Moser
IMHO bullets should be aligned with the left border of the text above and their textual content should be indented. Lower level bullets should then be aligned with that indented text and their text indented twice as much, etc.
I tried to fiddle with the setting for bullets, but the only field I found was "spacing from text", which - even when set down to 0 - still yields bullets that stand out to the left of the f text. And one can't enter negative numbers here...
Can one somehow adjust this as I described and save that as a new default for future new docs./pages?

No, there's no way.

That is about making more of the formatting options visible and
controllable.

Thanks for posting.
Although initially I had seriously difficulties to understand your
suggested, I finally got it and voted for it as well as leaving a tiny
comment behind.

Me again in this topic having bee discussed already.
Meanwhile I found out something which might be if help for you too:
After having read Knighnet's suggestion in Connect, I checked the
formatting options available in the TaskPane (which I hardly ever use
[to be honest: I hate it], especially in the 12.1" display of my
TabletPC). It seems that I just missed something :-( :-(

Right.
By default the bullets reach out over the text border. This looks ugly
and is not according to the common standards.
But there is a workaround:
Of one indents the first line if a list, in the TaskPane one can change
the indent and by this make the bullet points appear aligned to the text
above. The same is valid for further levels of a lost.

This can changed in the TaskPane

Yes, but just changing the level and making the 1st level to be the 2nd
level the options are available.

AFAICS these values can not be saved and/wir set as the default for
future lists.
