How to Create Lists and Sublists in LibreOffice Writer

LibreOffice Writer supports bulletpoint, and numbered lists. You can also create sublists (a list within a list) multiple levels deep. The style of bulletpoints will automatically be adjusted to help distinguish them from the parent, and child lists. The style of numbered lists will remain constant.


 

Steps:
- Write your first entry (eg: "Value 1").
[quote]
Value 1
[/quote]
- Click either the bulletpoint, or numbered list button. Your will now have a list started. Each time you press enter a new entry will be added to the list.
[quote]
 - Value 1
[/quote]
- To start a sublist, press the "Tab" key before writing the entry (eg: Subvalue 1"). You can repeat this to create further sublists.
[quote]
 - Value 1
   - Subvalue 1
[/quote]
- To end a list, press enter instead of writing an entry. If you are in a sublist it will also completely exit the list chain.
- To add further entries to an exited list, write the entry (eg: "Value 2"), and use the same list button you used before (eg: bulletpoint, or numbered).
[quote]
 - Value 1
   - Subvalue 1
 - Value 2
[/quote
- To add further sublist entries to an exited list, write the entry (eg: "Subvalue 2"), use the same list button you used before (eg: bulletpoint, or numbered), move the cursor back to the beginning of the entry, and press "Tab" to reach the desired sublist.
[quote]
 - Value 1
   - Subvalue 1
 - Value 2
   - Subvalue 2
[/quote]
