# Lists

Lists help organise information in a clear, easy-to-read format. You can create numbered lists for sequential items or bulleted lists for non-sequential items.

## Numbered list

Create a numbered list that starts from 1:

1. Place your cursor where you want the list to begin.
2. On the toolbar, click **Insert/Remove Numbered List**.
3. Type your first list item and press **Enter** to create the next item.

The list will automatically number each item (1, 2, 3, etc.).

### Create sublists in numbered lists

Add nested sublists within your numbered list:

1. Position your cursor at the list item where you want to create a sublist.
2. Press **Tab** on your keyboard.

The item will indent and become a sublist with its own numbering format (e.g., 1.1, 1.2 or a, b, c).

> **Tip**
>
> You can press Tab multiple times to create deeper nested sublists (e.g., 1.1.1, 1.1.2). Each Tab press creates a new nesting level.

### Remove numbered list

Remove numbering from a list:

1. Select the numbered list items.
2. On the toolbar, click **Insert/Remove Numbered List** again.

The numbers will be removed and the text will return to normal paragraphs.

## Bulleted list

Create a bulleted list with bullet points:

1. Place your cursor where you want the list to begin.
2. On the toolbar, click **Insert/Remove Bulleted List**.
3. Type your first list item and press **Enter** to create the next item.

The list will automatically add bullet points (•) before each item.

### Create sublists in bulleted lists

Add nested sublists within your bulleted list:

1. Position your cursor at the list item where you want to create a sublist.
2. Press **Tab** on your keyboard.

The item will indent and become a sublist with a different bullet style (e.g., ○ or ■).

> **Tip**
>
> You can press Tab multiple times to create deeper nested sublists. Each Tab press creates a new nesting level with different bullet styles.

### Remove bulleted list

Remove bullets from a list:

1. Select the bulleted list items.
2. On the toolbar, click **Insert/Remove Bulleted List** again.

The bullets will be removed and the text will return to normal paragraphs.

> **Info — INFO**
>
> Press **Shift+Tab** to move a list item back to a higher level (reduce nesting).

## When to use lists

**Use numbered lists when:**
- Order matters (steps in a process, rankings, sequences)
- Items need to be referenced by number
- Creating instructions or procedures

**Use bulleted lists when:**
- Order doesn't matter
- Listing features, benefits, or options
- Breaking down information into digestible points

> **Info**

> Lists automatically continue numbering or adding bullets when you press Enter after each item. Press Enter twice to exit the list and return to normal text.
