  2. Right-click with the mouse pointer over the selected list and choose the bulleted or numbered icon from the mini toolbar presented, as illustrated in the following screenshot:

  1. Depending on the type of list you would like to create, select the tiny arrow to the right of the relevant icon to access the options available.
  2. You can choose a bulleted or numbered list from the recently used list, the library, or the bullets used throughout the current document, or you can define a completely new bulleted or numbered list.
Remember that you can set options prior to or after typing a list.
