How to not indent a list

Post by luvthepug »

When creating a numbered list, Flare automatically indents it. I have a situation where I don't want the list to be indented.

How would I go about creating a style class to not indent the list?

In the Stylesheet Editor, check the margin-left property of the ol style, then add a style to ol with a negative value matching the main ol margin.

The downside to this is the style name doesn't show completely in the Style menu (because of the negative margin). You must pull the list button down (in the Paragraph section of the Home ribbon) and select from the Custom Format sub menu in order to apply the style to your list.

Just to follow up....I adjusted the left-margin to be negative-half of the default value rather than matching it which made the number not visible. This worked perfectly!
