    turn off the numbering system.. look on the toolbar and look for something with 1,2,3. Usually its next to a bullets thingy..

    once you commence up a numbered or bulleted list, the indent of textual content fabric fabric from the fashion is determined by skill of default, in all likelihood .63cm which isn't sufficient once you've more suitable digits and therefore it is going to the subsequent tab putting. therefore spotlight your list, superb button of mouse, all the way right down to bullets and numbering, click personalize and then replace the indent section, if the fashion has indented from the margin, i propose you're taking it from .sixty 3 lower back to O then the diverse 2 indents, set both at .7cm. I commonly bump into it really is amazingly sufficient, yet make certain you do both in any diverse case if any style is going to a second line it heavily isn't per the first line.
