Hey everyone...

I know this is a silly simple question, but its driving me nuts... When you
have a bullet point and the sentence runs down to the next line it auto
justifies to the left edge - i need that next line to be indented, but a simple
space isnt reading - is there a key command for this? Or a simple solution?

This is what i start with:
- this is my sentence, and it wont
indent in.

This is what i want:
- this is my sentence, and it wont
indent in.

thanxs in advance!

What are you using to create your bulleted items?

Are you using CSS?

If you are, then using the text-indent property with a negative value will work.

ie:

Or if you're using the TextFormat class then I do believe you can use the blockIndent property to make all your lines line up.
