Working With Styles

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

creates a new style based on your formatting choices in the previous steps.

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

To create a new list style from scratch:

1

Select some text.

2

Click Inspector in the toolbar (or choose View > Show Inspector), click Text to open

the Text Inspector, and then click List to open the List pane.

3

Format the selected list text so that it looks the way you want. You can select a symbol

or image to use as a bullet, and a numbering style. Also, you can set the amount of

indentation for each list indent level, as described above.

To use different bullet or numbering styles for different list indent levels, see the steps

for modifying an ordered list style, above.

4

Click the Add (+) button at the bottom-left of the Styles drawer and choose Create

New List Style From Selection from the pop-up menu.

5

Type a name for the new style.

6

If you don’t want to apply the new style to the selected text, deselect the checkbox

labeled “Apply new style on creation.”

7

Click OK.
