Styles Drawer) to open the Styles drawer.

Notice that one of the list styles is highlighted. This is the style that has been applied

to the selected text. (If the list styles are not visible, click the button in the bottom of

the Styles drawer.) The triangle to the right of the style name is red, indicating that

you have applied overrides to the style by modifying it.

Click the red arrow to the right of the selected style in the Styles drawer and choose

one of the following:

 Redefine Style From Selection: Redefines the existing list style for the entire

document.

If you choose this, your formatting changes will apply to all other instances of this

style throughout the document.

 Create New List Style From Selection: This doesn’t alter the existing style, but

creates a new style based on your formatting choices.

If you select this, type a name for the new style, and then click OK.

To modify a tiered list style for ordered lists:

1

Click Style in the toolbar and choose Show Styles Drawer (or choose View > Show

Styles Drawer) to open the Styles drawer, and select the ordered list (outline) style

that best matches the one you want to design. (Make sure the insertion point is visible

on the page so that you can select a list style.)

Click to show list styles.
