You can modify the space character following the number by clicking More > then Follow number with and select what you want.
Then open Include level number from and select level 1. Add a dot before the level 2 "1" in the Enter formatting for number field. Then place your mouse before the ".1" in the Enter formatting for number field and open the Include level number from dropdown menu and select level 2.

These numbers won't be highlighted in grey in the Enter formatting for number field. Inserting numbers manually in this field will give you static numbers which won't be linked to any dynamic numbering in your document. This will insert the numbering for level 1 before your numbering for level 2. Then open the Include level number from dropdown menu and select Level 1. Now how do I get the numbering style 1.1 at level 2? Pretty simple! Place your mouse before the ".1" in the Enter formatting for number field. You should get this result:Įrase the parenthesis character in the Enter formatting for number field and place a dot before the "1".

This will change the level 1 numbering format to "1.". Let's take the following numbering for our titles "1.","1.1","1.1.1","2.","2.1","2.2" and so on.įirst replace the parenthesis character with a dot character in the Enter formatting for number field. We'll define and apply font styles and formats later on. We will only define the numbering ("1)","a)") and no format or style will be applied at this level.
This will open the Modify Multilevel list window. Name your style however you want (here MyNewListStyle), then click the Format button > Numbering. This will open the Define New List Style window which we will use to customize the numbering style and format of our titles. Go to the Home tab > Paragraph section and click the multilevel list button. What we're going to do first is define a new list style to create a personalized numbering for our titles.
