Q: Pages: How do I create a formatted list that maintains spacing, lettering, numbering, "continue from previous," etc.?
I'm a university professor using Pages to write a multiple choice exam. The question format is as follows:
1. [Question]
A. [Choice 1]
B. [Choice 2]
C. [Choice 3]
D. [Choice 4]
2. [Question]
A. [Choice 1]
B. [Choice 2]
C. [Choice 3]
D. [Choice 4]
Simple enough. But it can be painstaking and time consuming to create this list. Pages will "Start from A" for the multiple choice answers; then, I write the next question and have to manually switch the question # back to "Continue from Previous." In addition, I'd like to automatically skip a line between choice D and the next question.
Essentially, is there an easier way to automatically format this list without manually adjusting each line?
