I used to have indented text styles (for example all 'Text body' has
2 cm from the left border). Earlier (in 2.x versions) there was no
problems, when I inserted bullets in those indented styles, but in
3.0 version outlined text is not aligned from the left, but
disordered (first line has larger indent than further lines) and
some changes happens in paragraph styles. There are no problems with
text styles, which aren't indented initially. I attached and
example, but I don't know will it go through.
At the moment I solve this by coping outlined text from older
documents created with 2.x and applying styles from the old fashion
outlined text to the new one, but I hope that it can be solved
somehow directly in 3.0 writer documents. Has anybody solution for that?
I can see the problem. Your header line has the margin at 2 cm in
from the text boundary, as you would expect. But in the bulleted
paragraphs, the margins are left behind at the positions that you
would expect without this indent. (You you can see this from the
positions of the triangular markers in the horizontal ruler.) The
first line of each bulleted item is allowed to land on a default tab
stop instead of at a defined position. Subsequent lines work correctly.
I can see solutions - or are they workarounds?
o Go to right-click | Edit Paragraph Style... .
o In your modified "Text body" paragraph style, as well as setting
the 2-cm indent, go to the Tabs tab and set a Left tab at 2 cm.
Alternatively,
o Go to Format | Bullets and Numbering... | Position (or right-click
| Numbering/Bullets... | Position.
o Increase the value for "Numbering followed by <Tab stop> at" from
1.27cm to 3.27cm - to account for your extra 2-cm indent.
I'll leave others to explain (1) if there are better ways of doing
this, and (2) whether this is a bug or a feature!
I trust this helps.
