Paragraph style in Pages?

I'm trying to set up a paragraph style in a document using Pages where the first line is not indented, but every following line is indented? I have searched Pages help, and I don't find this information. Does anyone know how to do this?


Thanks for the help. RRR

Hi Rebekkah,


Click anywhere in a paragraph and Format Panel > Text > Layout > Indents > Left > increase the Left Indent.

Note that the original style (Body) is now Body*

Click on the blue Update button to change all (Body) paragraphs to that new Left Indent.

Ian.

Hi Ian, Thanks for the help. It is exactly what I needed. Apple support wanted me to put everything in a box and then enter text. Your pathway is much more direct, and it is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Sorry it took so long for me to get back to thank you. I've been really busy. Great information. Regards, Rebekkah
