# Position (List Styles - Legacy)

Sets the indent, spacing, and alignment options for the numbered or bulleted list.

To access this command...

Choose View - Styles (F11) - choose List Styles - context menu of an entry - choose New/Modify - Position tab.

Choose Format - Bullets and Numbering - Position tab.

Choose Styles - Manage Styles - choose List Styles - context menu of an entry - choose New/Modify - Position tab.

Choose Tools - Chapter Numbering - Position tab.

## Nivo

Select the level(s) that you want to modify. To apply the options to all the levels, select "1-10". In Chapter Numbering, only one level can be selected, or use "1-10" to apply the options, except Paragraph style, to all the levels.

LibreOffice Writer uses the position controls shown here when opening documents that use a different method for positioning and spacing. For default controls see Position (List Styles).

## Position and Spacing

## Indent

Enter the amount of space to leave between the left page margin (or the left edge of the text object) and the left edge of the numbering area. If the current paragraph style uses an indent, the amount you enter here is added to the indent.

### Relative

Indents the current level relative to the previous level in the list hierarchy.

### Width of numbering

Enter the width of the numbering area. The numbering symbol can be left, center or right in this area.

### Minimum space between numbering and text.

The alignment of the numbering symbol is adjusted to get the desired minimum space. If it is not possible because the numbering area is not wide enough, then the start of the text is adjusted.

### Numbering alignment

Aligns the numbering symbol left, center, or right in the numbering area. The position might be adjusted to maintain the minimum space.

The Numbering alignment option does not set the alignment of the paragraph.

### Uobičajeno

Resets the indent and the spacing values to the default values.

### Preview

Displays a preview of the current selection.

### Load/Save

Saves or loads a chapter numbering format. A saved chapter numbering format is available to all text documents.

The Load/Save button is only available for chapter numbering. For numbered or bulleted list styles, modify the numbering styles of the paragraphs.

### Reset

Resets changes made to the current tab to those applicable when this dialog was opened.

### Primijeni

Applies the modified or selected values without closing the dialog.

This control appears only when modifying a List style.
