How to create bulleted and numbered lists quickly

Is there a quick way to create these lists with the desired settings?

Creating a single-level bulleted or numbered list

In HelpSmith 10.x, you can simply apply one of the standard styles named Bulleted List or Numbered List which you can find in the Styles pane (click: View tab|Styles).

1. In the topic editor, select the paragraphs that will belong to a list.
2. In the Styles pane, double-click on the Bulleted List or Numbered List style.
3. Then double-click on the List Paragraph (Level 1) style.

Remark: Please note that indentation settings are actually stored in paragraph styles, but not in list styles. Therefore, you should also apply the List Paragraph style along with the list style.

If necessary, you can modify settings of the list styles to change the font size or color of the bullet/numbering marker, and other settings.

Using the List Paragraph style for different list levels

It should be said that when you create a single-level or multi-level list, you should apply both a List Style and also a List Paragraph N style to the paragraphs of this list.

Remark: Please note that since the List Paragraph N style is a child style of the Normal style, it will have the same paragraph alignment, spacing, and font settings as the main text (which uses the Normal style), but special indentation settings (First Margin, Left Margin) depending on the list level.
