But this is a program that over time has not stopped evolving and growing. Thus, it has been receiving new updates and functions in order to meet the expectations and needs of its millions of users. Therefore and due to all this, at the moment we can find a multitude of functions, more or less useful or extended, but which try to cover all environments. At the same time we must bear in mind that here we are not only going to work with texts , but also that the application supports all kinds of additional elements. Here we find graphics, tables, images , videos, etc; many of them from the Insert menu.

To all that we have mentioned so far, another very interesting element as well as useful that we can add, are those called lists. In fact, in these we are going to focus on these same lines , a type of object as used and versatile as lists.

Surely, over the years, many of you have used these elements to add a plus to your documents. Well, that is why here we are going to focus on showing you in detail what these objects can offer us. We will also see the types of lists that we can use in Word , as well as the utility that they will offer us separately.

What is a Word list and what is it for?

First of all and as its own name lets us glimpse, the Word lists function allows us to carry out an accumulation of similar elements, and ordered properly. Thus, what we achieve is to generate our own personal lists that in the end will come in handy to show a set of elements, but in a structured way.

Of course, we must bear in mind that the advanced program of the Redmond , presents us with several ways, both to create those lists, and formats for them. For example, initially we have the possibility of accessing this type of elements directly from the Start menu option of Word itself. Thus, at the top of the section called Paragraph, we see the formats of the same that we can access and use below.

As we mentioned, a program of the potential of this Microsoft , presents us with several alternatives to choose from when dealing with its additional elements. Here come into play, as it could not be otherwise, the lists that concern us in these lines. That is why below we are going to talk about each of the types of lists that we are going to find here and that we can use. Each will be best suited for a type of use, or work environment.

Numbered lists

It is evident that the numbered lists are perhaps one of the most common ones that are often used when the time comes to make use of these elements. They could be considered as the most basic of the exposed formats, but perhaps they are also the most useful. These are represented, in the section discussed above, by a button with a series of numbers vertically. Therefore, to see what this format offers us, we will only have to click on it.

It is worth mentioning that despite being called Numbering Lists, here we can use other elements in the form of separators for the elements of the same. We will see these on the screen by clicking on the drop-down list to the right of the mentioned button. In this way, we can opt to use simple numbers , upper or lower case letters, numbers with a separator, etc. Say that when you click on the button directly, the list will begin to be classified by simple numbers.

But that’s not all, but at the same time we can specify our own custom classifier, all through the link Define new number format.

Here the program itself proposes a wide range of formats that will serve as classification elements for the list that we will create. Similarly, we will have the possibility to create a custom one by adding characters to the Number format field. Say that in this same window we have a preview to visualize how the numerical list that we are going to create will look like. As you can imagine, this function opens up a wide range of possibilities when creating basic and original lists in Word.

Before we finish this type, we will tell you that a shortcut to creating numerical lists here is, for example, writing a 1 followed by a -. Thus, when pressing the space bar, Word will directly create a list of this type for us to fill in and customize.

Bullet lists

On the other hand, a little more original than those previously reviewed, we find the Bullet lists. These we will find in the same section of the main interface of the program that we discussed earlier. But in this case, if we choose to use this specific format, say that it is represented by a button with a series of small squares. As in the previous case, when you click on the small arrow on the right of it, the corresponding drop-down list appears.

Here, as before, we are going to find a series of slightly more graphic elements or objects that will serve as cataloguers or separators for this new list. In this section, what we are going to find are a series of elements in the form of symbols that can act as separators for the elements of the new list. Thus, we find circles, squares, arrows, etc. But of course, as in the previous case, we can also define new ones. For this we click on Define new bullet from the mentioned drop-down list.

The most interesting thing about this is that here we can specify that we want to use some of the multiple symbols that we usually use throughout the operating system. But that is not all, we will also have the possibility to select an image that we have stored in the disk drives . Of course, we should be a little cautious, since this image will be repeated over and over again for each item on the list.

As in the previous case, we also have the possibility to shorten the process of creating a custom list. For this, it is enough that we write an asterisk on a new line, so that the bullet list starts automatically by pressing the space bar .

Multilevel lists

So far we have been able to see the main objective and how we can create both numerical and bulleted lists. Each format can serve us in an environment or type of independent use, we can also create both lists made up of generic classifiers, as well as more personalized and therefore original.

However, it is also worth taking a look at the so-called Multilevel lists. We will find these in the same section of the Word interface of the previous two. Of course, in this case they are represented by the levels of which they will be composed, in miniature. So, to start we will tell you these Multilevel are elements of this same type that we have seen, but they allow you to create a list within another. It is evident that for this the container must already exist, so within the primary list, we can create others. Say that these will keep the indentations that we added initially, as well as the numbering indicated in their design.

That is why it could be said that the use of these elements is like taking the use of the simple lists previously reviewed, one step further. In fact, if we deploy the corresponding drop-down menu on its button , we find designs similar to those we saw in the previous formats, but in this case, nested. In the same way we can create the design of our new multilevel list from the link Define new list style.

At the same time, we find another link in the same window that allows us to define a new, multilevel, personalized list. Here we will have the opportunity to specify various parameters of this nested list element. Among these we find the possibility of customizing the types of separators of the different lists, including the level number, the alignment of the elements, the distance of the indentation , etc.

How to sort a Word list

First, it must be clear that in order to sort the components of a Word list, we must first create an element of this type. For this we can use any of the types that we talked about previously, to later mark the list in its entirety.

Well, once we have marked it with the mouse, we return to look at the Paragraph section, but in this case we opted for the button called Order. This is represented by the letters A and Z with an arrow, where we can directly click. There are no drop-down lists here, as before. But of course, by clicking on the mentioned button that we discussed, we find a new window that will give us the opportunity to customize the order to use in the marked list, depending on the needs of each case.

In this way, the program offers us the possibility of sorting the lists marked by paragraphs or titles on the one hand. When it comes to placing the elements that are part of it, Word offers us to order them by alphabetical, numerical order, or by date. Thus, if we are a little tricky and create the source lists in a structured way, this function will allow us to order their elements in a few seconds. And it is that the correct use of these elements will help to better understand our created documents.

Многоуровневый список — это список, в котором содержатся элементы с отступами разных уровней. В программе Microsoft Word присутствует встроенная коллекция списков, в которой пользователь может выбрать подходящий стиль. Также, в Ворде можно создавать новые стили многоуровневых списков самостоятельно.

Урок: Как в Word упорядочить список в алфавитном порядке

Выбор стиля для списка со встроенной коллекции

1. Кликните в том месте документа, где должен начинаться многоуровневый список.

2. Кликните по кнопке “Многоуровневый список”, расположенной в группе “Абзац” (вкладка “Главная”).

3. Выберите понравившийся стиль многоуровневого списка из тех, что представлены в коллекции.

4. Введите элементы списка. Для изменения уровней иерархии элементов, представленных в списке, нажмите “TAB” (более глубокий уровень) или “SHIFT+TAB” (возвращение к предыдущему уровню.

Урок: Горячие клавиши в Ворде

Создание нового стиля

Вполне возможно, что в числе многоуровневых списков, представленных в коллекции Microsoft Word, вы не найдете того, который бы вас устроил. Именно для таких случаев в этой программе предусмотрена возможность создания и определения новых стилей многоуровневых списков.

Новый стиль многоуровневого списка может быть применен при создании каждого последующего списка в документе. Кроме того, новый стиль, созданный пользователем, автоматически добавляется в доступную в программе коллекцию стилей.

1. Кликните по кнопке “Многоуровневый список”, расположенной в группе “Абзац” (вкладка “Главная”).

2. Выберите “Определить новый многоуровневый список”.

3. Начиная с уровня 1, введите желаемый формат номера, задайте шрифт, расположение элементов.

Урок: Форматирование в Ворде

4. Повторите аналогичные действия для следующих уровней многоуровневого списка, определив его иерархию и вид элементов.

Примечание: Определяя новый стиль многоуровневого списка, в этом же списке вы можете использовать и маркеры и номера. К примеру, в разделе “Нумерация для этого уровня” вы можете пролистать перечень стилей многоуровневого списка, выбрав подходящий стиль маркера, который и будет применен к конкретному уровню иерархии.

5. Нажмите “ОК” для принятия изменения и закрытия диалогового окна.

Примечание: Стиль многоуровневого списка, который был создан пользователем, будет автоматически установлен в качестве стиля, используемого по умолчанию.

Для перемещения элементов многоуровневого списка на другой уровень, воспользуйтесь нашей инструкцией:

1. Выберите элемент списка, который нужно переместить.

2. Кликните по стрелке, расположенной около кнопки “Маркеры” или “Нумерация” (группа “Абзац”).

3. В выпадающем меню выберите параметр “Изменить уровень списка”.

4. Кликните по тому уровню иерархии, на который нужно переместить выбранный вами элемент многоуровневого списка.

Определение новых стилей

На данном этапе необходимо пояснить, в чем заключается разница между пунктами “Определить новый стиль списка” и “Определить новый многоуровневый список”. Первую команду уместно использовать в ситуациях, когда необходимо изменить стиль, созданный пользователем. Новый стиль, созданный с помощью этой команды, обнулит все его вхождения в документе.

Параметр “Определить новый многоуровневый список” крайне удобно использовать в случаях, когда нужно создать и сохранить новый стиль списка, который в дальнейшем не будет изменяться или же будет использоваться только в одном документе.

Ручная нумерация элементов списка

В некоторых документах, содержащих нумерованные списки, необходимо обеспечить возможность ручного изменения нумерации. При этом, необходимо, чтобы MS Word правильно изменял номера следующих элементов списка. Один из примеров документов такого типа — юридическая документация.

Для ручного изменения нумерации необходимо воспользоваться параметром “Задание начального значения” — это позволит программе корректно изменить нумерацию следующих элементов списка.

1. Кликните правой кнопкой мышки по тому номеру в списке, который нужно изменить.

2. Выберите параметр “Задать начальное значение”, а затем выполните необходимое действие:

• Активируйте параметр “Начать новый список”, измените значение элемента в поле “Начальное значение”.



• Активируйте параметр “Продолжить предыдущий список”, а затем установите галочку “Изменить начальное значение”. В поле “Начальное значение” задайте необходимые значения для выбранного элемента списка, связанного с уровнем заданного номера.

3. Порядок нумерации списка будет изменен согласно заданным вами значениям.

Вот, собственно, и все, теперь вы знаете, как создавать многоуровневые списки в Ворде. Инструкция, описанная в данной статье, применима ко всем версиям программы, будь то Word 2007, 2010 или его более новые версии.

Checklists and lists have become the staple of everything from grocery shopping to NASA launches. But they are boring.

Still, lists and checklists are also the simplest tools to reduce the complexity of information that assaults us every day. They are also the perfect antidote against forgetfulness. So, even as we swear to make perfect lists for productivity, let’s also get down to the basics with Microsoft Word and check off one daily office function—how to make those visually appealing lists and manage them.

1. Create Your First List

Most of the list-making tricks and tips lie within the Ribbon’s Paragraph group on the Home tab.

Select the text to which you want to add the numbered list and click the down arrows next to the Bullet Lists icon or the Numbered List icon to access the libraries for both. Preview each list format by hovering over the selections available.

Microsoft Word also automatically creates a list for you when you start a paragraph with an asterisk or a number 1, period, and space followed by a press on the Enter key. With an asterisk, Word creates a bulleted list. Word senses that you are trying to create a numbered list with a number.

If you don’t want your text turned into a list, you can click the AutoCorrect options button image that appears. To disable or enable this option, go to File > Options > Proofing > AutoCorrect Options > AutoFormat As You Type.

To quickly change the style of a bulleted or numbered list, just click the style you want in the list that appears when you click the arrow next to Bullets or Numbering.

General Tip: You can change the format of just one or some of the bullet or number styles in a list. Place the cursor at the start of the line that you want to change before opening the Bullets and Numbering dialog box. Your changes will apply only to the selected lines.

2. Use Just the Keyboard to Create a List

Use a handy Microsoft Word shortcut to create numbered lists quickly with the keyboard alone.

The keyboard shortcut for a bulleted list: Press Ctrl + Shift + L to apply the default bullets to a list. Press Ctrl + Shift + N to remove the bullets.

To customize a keyboard shortcut for a numbered list, right-click anywhere on the Ribbon and select Customize the Ribbon from the popup menu. You can also open Word Options from File > Options > Customize Ribbon.

Click on the Customize button for Keyboard shortcuts.

Select All Commands in the Categories list. Scroll down the list on the left, and select FormatNumberDefault.

Place the cursor in the Press new shortcut key box and press the shortcut key combination you want to use to create a numbered list. For example, you could use Alt + N because it’s not assigned to anything else in Word. Click Assign.

The new keyboard shortcut is added to the Current keys list.

Click OK to exit the dialog box and test the new shortcut. Pressing «Alt + N» creates a numbered list. Pressing it again reverts it back to paragraph text.

General Tip: Do you want to skip numbering for a list item and convert it into a paragraph in the middle of a list? Select the specific list item and use the Alt + N shortcut to turn off the numbering.

3. Change the Default Numbered List Format

You can change, edit, or create a new numbered list. You have four Numbered List formats to choose from. But what if you want to use your own format other than the letters or Roman numerals, and it’s not available?

Go to Home > Paragraph group > Numbering. Click the down arrow. Choose Define New Number Format.

Choose any chronological format. To change the font size, style, and color, click Font and choose a setting on the Font or Advanced tab.

When you want to add a dash, parentheses, or another value like a pound sign to the number, enter it in the Number format field. The little preview displays the changes. You can see the square brackets for a list you can tick off in the screenshot below.

Choose Left, Centered, or Right under Alignment to change the number alignment. The default is Left-Aligned.

Click OK.

The new number format is applied to any selected text on your document.

General Tip: You can even prefix the numbered lists with descriptive text, e.g., Attendee 1, Attendee 2, Attendee 3…and so on.

4. Change the Default Bullet List Format

Just like the numbered list, you can also change the default look of any bulleted list. Again, visually appealing bullets (other than the boring black solid dots) help your documents stand out from the mundane.

Select the text you want the bulleted list for and follow these steps.

Go to Home > Paragraph group. Click the arrow next to Bullets.

When the bullet you want isn’t in the library, click Define New Bullet.

The Define New Bullet dialog box opens. Under Bullet Character, choose Symbol.

Another dialog opens, which lets you choose appropriate symbols from your installed fonts.

The Wingdings fonts have the best variety that makes for stylized bullet lists. Like any other font, you can change the color, size, style, and other characteristics of your chosen bullet font. Click the Font button in the Bullet character section to enter the Font dialog box.

General Tip: Use an open box (Open box) or a three-dimensional box (3D box) from the Wingdings character palette to create a Word document with neat checkboxes.

5. Use a Picture Instead of a Bullet

Sometimes all the mystic symbols in Webdings might not be enough. You can also use your own reusable graphics for bullet points. Though picture and SmartArt bullets look better on a PowerPoint slide, they work just as well in Word.

Select the bulleted list for which you want to change the bullets to pictures. Next, go to the Home tab > Paragraph group, click on the Bullets button, and select Define New Bullet from the dropdown menu. On the Define New Bullet dialog box, click Picture.

The Insert Pictures dialog box is displayed with different choices for your source file. You can insert a picture From a file on your PC or local network, from a Bing Image Search, or your OneDrive account.

Navigate to the location of your source file and click on Insert. The Preview window shows the selection.

General Tip: You can choose a graphic that matches the «theme» of your list. For instance, display a banana as a picture bullet for a list of fruits. Make sure images are transparent and have a good background. In my experience, simple graphics work best.

6. Line Up the Numbers in a List

Sometimes, the smallest of tweaks can make a big visual difference. For example, note the screenshot below, which shows a numbered list with Word’s default Left alignment. As soon as the list reaches double digits, the default left alignment seems skewed as the decimal points do not line up neatly. Microsoft Word allows you to control this alignment and flush the double-digit numbers to the right.

Create your numbered list. Select the list items. Word can also control the alignment of a few selected items.

Go to Home > Paragraph. Then, click the dropdown arrow on Numbered list button.

Click on Define New Number Format. Choose Right alignment from the dropdown. Click OK.

General Tip: Even if there is no decimal, it is preferable to have them aligned on the right edge of the number. Try it with brackets.

7. Adjust Microsoft Word’s Automatic List Indent

Every Word list comes with an automatic indent. Depending on the visual look you want, you may want to adjust the space.

Double-click any number in the list to select all of the numbers in the list.

Right-click the selection and choose Adjust List Indents from the context menu.

Change the distance of the bullet indent from the margin with the Number position box. Change the distance between the bullet and the text with the Text indent box.

Click OK.

8. Apply Formatting to a Single Number or Bullet on a List

You may want to format (changing the bullet style, color, or the size) a single bullet or number on a list without affecting any text on the list or any other succeeding bullets or numbers. Here’s an easy way.

Show formatting marks by clicking Home > Show/Hide.

Select just the paragraph marker (pilcrow) at the end for the list item whose bullet or number you want to change. Apply any formatting. The formatting affects only the bullet or number; the text in the list item retains its original format.

New bulleted or numbered items on the list coming after this will reflect this too. The text in the new list item will have the same font characteristics as the previous text, and the new bullet/number will have the same font characteristics as the previous bullet/number.

9. Create a Multilevel Numbered List

A multilevel list can be a mix of numbers, alphabets, and bullets arranged on different levels, as shown below. You can use multilevel lists to break down a list into its hierarchies or sub-points. Such an alignment is also used to create outlines. Word 2016 gives us a dedicated button on the Ribbon to create a multilevel list.

Click the Multilevel List button and type the list.

Press the Tab key to indent and create a sublevel. Press Shift + Tab to unindent and promote an item to a higher level.

General Tip: You can also write the entire list in advance. Select it, and click the Multilevel List button to align it using the Tab and Shift + Tab keys to organize the topics. You can also use the Increase or Decrease Indent commands on the Ribbon.

10. Create Reusable Styles for Multilevel Lists

You can change the bullets, letters, or numbers’ style, color, and alignment like any other list type. Save these changes as a new style and use it again and again.

Go to Ribbon > Home > click the arrow next to Multilevel List > Define New Multilevel List.

Click on More to expand the options.

For customizing any of the levels, click the level number you want to modify. 1 is the default.

Use the options provided to change the appearance of the list. For example:

• In Number style for this level, type (1) if you want to style the numbers with parentheses or (A) to style the letters with parentheses.
• In Start at, choose the number, letter, or bullet where you want to start the list.

When you’ve finished the customizations, give the list a name under the ListNum field list name. This name will appear wherever you see the ListNum field.

Choose a style under Link level to style. This lets you use an existing style in Word for each level in the list.

Choose where you would like to apply your changes by clicking on Apply changes to and selecting from Selected text, Whole list, or This point forward.

11. Convert a List to a Table

First, select the list. Next, go to Home > Insert. Click the Table option in the Tables group.

Choose Convert Text to Table from the dropdown list.

Microsoft Word estimates the table structure based on the list’s contents. Word creates the columns based on the separators between the items on the list.

When Word doesn’t get it right, you have to modify the settings and make it easier for Word to convert the list. Once the table has been created, you can use the Table design tools to format the appearance.

General Tip: In most cases, the results aren’t perfect. The best way is to remove the numbering or the bullets and then create the table from the list of items. The serial numbers can easily be added to the table later.

12. Continue Your Numbering When a Paragraph Cuts It Short

Sometimes, a paragraph of text needs to interrupt the sequence of the list. Follow these steps to continue the list after the paragraph with the same number format.

Enter the rest of your numbered list after the paragraph and format it. The list begins with 1 again. Right-click on the list that comes after the paragraph. Choose Continue Numbering from the Context menu. The list is modified instantly.

The list numbering continues from where the paragraph broke it off.

The Importance of Lists as Timesavers

Lists are time savers when a document has to be an exercise in economy. They instantly become a little less boring than blocks of text. Use them as the organizational backbone of a document and see your document better organized.

Я представляю список в Word живым организмом, который может жить и развиваться только при правильном подходе. Вы же не кормите любимого котёнка просроченными консервами? Вы соблюдаете все правила ухода за маленькими детьми? Вы чистите зубы два раза в день?

К процессу создания такого явления, как «Список в Word» надо подойти со всей ответственностью. Иначе у вас будут проблемы с неправильной нумерацией, с неправильными отступами.

По окончании урока вы сможете:

1. Задать одноуровневый список и многоуровневый список
2. Перечислить правила работы со списками

Скачайте документ тут

1. Одноуровневый и многоуровневый список

В чём разница между этими видами списка?

(1) маркированный список
(2) нумерованный список
(3) многоуровневый список

На уроке 21 мы знакомились с этими кнопками. Но сейчас нам важно понять разницу при создании этих списков.

Откройте скачанный документ. Я создала в документе таблицу из двух ячеек. В ячейках два абсолютно одинаковых текста. Ну просто старый знакомый текст! Приступим?

Шаг 1.  Выделите текст в первой ячейке. Здесь мы не можем воспользоваться выделением на полосе выделения, иначе мы выделим всю таблицу:

Можно выделить перетаскиванием, но я считаю, что это очень вредно для лучезапястной мышцы. Поступим следующим образом:

1. Щёлкнем ЛМ перед словом «Отец» в первой ячейке
2. Нажмём клавишу Shift на клавиатуре
3. Щёлкнем ЛМ в конце слова «Йогурт»

Я рассказывала о различных видах выделения на уроке 2, но повторить никогда не помешает.

Кстати, вы обратили внимание, что зелёный кружок (похож на каракатицу) после слова «Йогурт» не выделился вместе с остальным текстом?

Шаг 2. Задаём на выделенный текст Нумерованный список: лента Главная → группа команд Абзац → кнопка Нумерованный список:

Вы обратили внимание, что положение отступа и выступа изменились? Я даже могу сказать на какую величину. Номер «отскочил» на 0,63 см (четверть дюйма), а текст «отскочил» на 1,27 см (половина дюйма). На уроке 22 я подробно об этом говорила.

Шаг 3.    Выделите текст во второй ячейке.

1. Аккуратно подведём курсор к границе ячейки, пока курсор не превратиться в толстенькую наклонную стрелку, окрашенную чёрным цветом
2. Щёлкнем ЛМ

Посмотрите: зелёный кружок после слова «Йогурт» выделен вместе со всем текстом.

Вывод:

1. ЛМ+ Shift – выделяем часть текста в ячейке (ведь мы можем щёлкнуть ЛМ в любом месте текста, но в данном случае нам надо было выделить весь текст, вот мы щёлкнули после слова «Йогурт»)
2. А вот чёрная толстенькая стрелочка выделяет всё (!) содержимое ячейки.

Давайте сделаем отметочку в памяти. Нам эта отметочка ещё пригодится, когда мы с вами доберёмся до таблиц.

Шаг 4.    Задаём на выделенный текст Многоуровневый список: лента Главная → группа команд Абзац → кнопка Многоуровневый список.

Получили такую картину:

Итак, мы имеем два абсолютно одинаковых списка. Ну разве что отступы у них разные

Шаг 5.    В любом месте первого списка щёлкаем ПМ. Появляется контекстное меню, в котором мы выбираем команду «Изменить отступы в списке»:

Вспомнили это окно? Мы подробно о нём говорили на уроке 22. Полюбовались на это диалоговое окно и нажали кнопку «Отмена».

Шаг 6.    Теперь сделаем то же самое для второго списка. В любом месте второго списка щёлкаем ПМ. Появляется контекстное меню, в котором мы выбираем команду «Изменить отступы в списке»:

И появляется диалоговое окно «Определение нового многоуровневого списка». Мы с этим окном знакомились на уроках 23, 24, 25. Скажете, что всё правильно? Разные списки – разные диалоговые окна?

Полюбовались на это диалоговое окно и нажали кнопку «Отмена».

Шаг 7.    Выделяем в первом списке все абзацы красного цвета при помощи клавиши Ctrl (как это сделать смотрите в уроке 2). Нажимаем кнопку «Увеличить отступ» один раз:

Шаг 8.    Выделяем во втором списке все абзацы красного цвета при помощи клавиши Ctrl (как это сделать смотрите в уроке 2). Нажимаем кнопку «Увеличить отступ» один раз:

Шаг 9.    Выделяем в первом списке все абзацы чёрного цвета при помощи клавиши Ctrl (как это сделать смотрите в уроке 2). Нажимаем кнопку «Увеличить отступ» два раза: 

Шаг 10.   Выделяем во втором списке все абзацы чёрного цвета при помощи клавиши Ctrl (как это сделать смотрите в уроке 2). Нажимаем кнопку «Увеличить отступ» два раза:

Вывод

В программе Word нет одноуровневого списка. Все списки многоуровневые!

Напоминаю вам Урок 26. Уменьшить отступ или увеличить отступ. На самом деле эти кнопки повышают или понижают уровень в списке.

2. Правила работы со списками

Поведение кнопки «Нумерованный список» я предсказать не берусь. В прежних версиях Word одноуровневый и многоуровневый списки были двумя абсолютно различными операциями. Но, начиная с версии Word-2007 разделение исчезло, но зато осталась рудиментарная кнопка «Нумерованный список».

В качестве детской забавы проделайте такую операцию:

1. Выделите первый список полностью и щёлкните ЛМ кнопку «Нумерованный список»:
2. Не снимая выделения, заново щёлкните кнопку «Нумерованный список»:

Это один из многих неприятных сюрпризов, которые нам может подбрасывать кнопка «Нумерованный список».

Ко мне часто обращаются с вопросами, как правильно сделать  список в Word. Для себя я давно вывела три важных правила работы со списками:

Теперь вы сможете:

1. Задать одноуровневый список и многоуровневый список

MS-Word / General Formatting

---

Word can organize and arrange text in three types of lists:

• Bullets (like this list)
• Numbering
• Multilevel list

You can create a list from scratch or convert existing text into a list. To create a list from scratch, follow these steps:

1. Click the Home tab and then move the cursor where you want to create a list.
2. Click the Bullets, Numbering, or Multilevel List icon. Word creates your list (bulleted or numbered).
3. Type your text and press Enter to create another blank item in your list.
4. Repeat Step 3 for each additional bullet or numbered item you want to make.

If you have existing text, you can convert it into a list by following these steps:

1. Click the Home tab and then select the text you want to convert into a list.
2. Click the Bullets, Numbering, or Outline Numbering icon. Word converts your selected text into your chosen list where each
   paragraph appears as a separate item in the list.

Indenting list items

After you create a list, you may want to indent one list item underneath another one. To indent an item in a list,
follow these steps:

1. Move the cursor anywhere in the text in the list item you want to indent and then press the Home key to move the cursor
   to the front of the line.
2. Press the Tab key to indent an item to the right (or press the Shift+Tab keystroke combination to indent an item to the left).
   When you indent a list, Word changes the number or bullet style to set the line apart from the rest of your list.

Converting list items back into text

If you have a list, you may want to convert one or more items back into ordinary text. To convert a list item into plain
text, follow these steps:

1. Click the Home tab and then select the list items you want to convert into plain text.
2. Click the appropriate Bullets, Numbering, or Outline Numbering icon. If you want to convert a bullet list item into text,
   you would click the Bullets icon.

Customizing a list

When you create a bullet or numbered list, you can choose from a variety of different styles. To choose a numbering style,
follow these steps:

1. Click the downward-pointing arrow to the right of a list icon, such as the Bullet or Numbering icon. Make sure you don’t
   click the Numbering icon itself.
   A pull-down menu appears listing all the different numbering styles available.

   

2. Click the numbering style you want. The next time you click the Numbering icon, Word will use the numbering style you chose.

The changes you make to the numbering or bullet style will only apply to your current document.

Renumbering numbered lists

Number lists can cause special problems when dividing or copying them because the numbering may get out of sequence, or
you may want to start numbering from a number other than one. To change the starting number of a numbered list, follow these steps:

1. Right-click the item that you want to renumber. If you want to renumber your entire list, right-click the first item at
   the top of the numbered list. A pop-up menu appears.
   Rightclicking a numbered list item to see options for renumbering your list.
2. Choose one of the following:
   

   Restart at 1:
   Changes the numbering of the current list item to 1, the list item directly below to 2, and so on. (This option does not
   appear if you right-click the first item in a number list.)

   Continue Numbering:
   Changes the number of the current list item to one greater than the last numbered list item earlier in the document.

   Set Numbering Value:
   So you can change the current list item to a specific number such as 33 or 87.
   Choose a number for your list.

On the Home tab, in the Paragraph group, click Numbering or from the popup menu
(for more details see Creating numbered
lists) and then choose Set Numbering Value…:

When you open the box while the list is selected, these option buttons are enabled and one is selected:

• Start new list: Starts the numbering sequence over from 1. You might use this to place two
  numbered lists one after the other. Word will want to continue the second list with the next number
  in sequence from the previous list; this option tells it not to.
• Continue from previous list: Tells Word you want to begin your list where the last one left
  off. For instance, you may want to create a very long procedural description, with paragraphs of
  unnumbered text within the list. This allows you to create lots of individual numbered lists, but
  link them all together.
• Set value to: You can start or continue list this any value that you want.

Another way to use these commands is to right-click on the first entry in the list and select from the
pop-up menu Restart at 1 or Continue Numbering:

Note: More details are available
in the Numbered lists section
in the Work with bulleted, numbered and multi-level lists lesson
of the Create basic documents free course.
