Indenting paragraphs
To change the indentation for a paragraph, position the insertion point in the
paragraph and drag the first-line indent marker , left margin marker , or
right margin marker
to a new position on the text ruler.
Tip for hanging indents After setting up your tabs, you can set apart hanging
indents by typing a character, such as a number or bullet, in the margin to the
left of the paragraph. (To type a bullet, press Option-8.) Press Tab, and then
begin typing the paragraph.
Adding bullets, numbers, and checkboxes to paragraphs
AppleWorks comes with a series of special characters—called paragraph
styles—that you can use to convert paragraphs to lists, such as bulleted lists,
numbered lists, and checklists.
Tip If you want to label most or all of the paragraphs in a document, use an
outline style. See “Outlining” on page 4-14 for more information.
