I suppose you can think of 'margin=dimension' option as increasing the margin by the specified dimension for the list. It works without any problems for a list that is not nested within another list. However, with nesting, as in the example I emailed, it does not work.
I tried the 'width' command but that does not do what I want. It inserts the space between the item symbol and the item text. I want the space before item symbol. Thanks.
