I can't not use styles in LibreOffice it's one of the things I like most about LO/OO. Put the cursor in the paragraph you want non-indented or mouse select a section of it, then go into the F11 paragraph style menu and double-click the style you want.
(You can change that by going into the Organizer tab in the Paragraph Styles menu, then "Next Style", but I don't want to get too far off track.) When you're done with your indented section, manually change the rest of the text to your non-indented style. Libre/Open Office defaults to making text stay in the same style unless you tell it otherwise. Viola, your text style is now fully indented. Go into Indents & Spacing and change the "Before text" value to something like 0.5". That'll give you access to all that style's properties. Now, in the Styles list (F11 again), right-click your new style's name and hit "Modify". In the Create Style menu, give it a name like "Indented Main Text" or "Bulleted List without Bullets" or "nifty trousers" or whatever strikes your fancy. styles aren't very useful here.) Now, go into the top right drop-down menu - the one with the little paragraph symbol and justified pseudo-text next to it - and select "New Style from Selection". (In case it's not clear, that should be the paragraph style you're currently using. Go into the F11 Styles menu, then click on the style you're currently using. This will change all of the text in that style throughout the document, and not have you hunting for a mismatch while proof-reading."Įven better is to clone the current style and modify the clone. Scruss: "A résumé is a really good place to use consistent styles, so in OpenOffice, hit F11 to open the Styles window, then right click on a current style to edit it.
