What determines how much a bullet "tabs in" in MS word?

Asked by roundsquare (5522points) December 10th, 2010

I’m making an outline and so I’m using layered bullets e.g.

> Topic
____* Point 1
____* Point 2
________- Sub point A
etc…
(Sorry, I had to use underscores since Fluther doesn’t appear to recognize multiple spaces in a row).

Sometimes the subsequent bullets tab in half an inch, sometimes ¾ of an inch. Normally its not that big a deal but for this outline I have quite a few tab levels sometimes (exceptions to exceptions to exceptions) and if its too narrow it ca be hard to read/use. Why does it vary within the same document? Is there a way to make it always half an inch?
