- HOW TO CHANGE THE GLOBAL OUTLINE STYLE
-
-
- C. In PC-OUTLINE, you can change several parameters that define
- the appearance of the outline from a single Option Box.
- Choosing Global Outline Style from the Display menu will
- bring up an Option Box with six types of settings:
-
- 1. Indent Per Outline Level - this controls the number of
- spaces that each level of the outline is indented. Any
- number between 0 and 20 is valid.
- 2. Spaces For Numbering - this controls the number of leading
- spaces that are allocated for numbering on the top level.
- 3. First Entry Number - this determines the starting value of
- the first element in the outline. This allows you to start
- the outline with a first element that is numbered "C" or "5"
- instead of "A" or "1".
- 4. Numbering Type - sets all outline numbering to Sequential,
- Procedural, Bullet, or None.
- 5. Level Letter - If Numbering Type is Sequential, then this
- sets the lettering type to Uppercase Letters, Lowercase
- Letters, Numbers, Roman Numbers, and Bullets on each of the
- first eight levels.
- 6. Level Punctuation - If Numbering Type is Sequential, then
- this sets the character to follow the Lettering on each of
- the first eight levels.
