Place your cursor anywhere on any line of your list. Whatever the case, you can easily make that change. Or maybe you just want a different numbering scheme. Perhaps you originally went with numbers, but now want to use bullet points. Sometimes, you may decide that you want to change the basic type of multilevel list you’re using. How to Quickly Change the Type of Your Multilevel List Place your cursor anywhere in the line you want to change (or select multiple lines if you want to change more than one).Ĭlick the “Multilevel List” button on the Home tab of the Ribbon, point to the “Change List Level” option on the dropdown, and then select the level you want.Īnd the line (or lines) you selected get changed to that level. While just using the Tab and Shift+Tab key combos is probably the easiest way to promote or demote lines on your list, Word does have a menu option for choosing a specific level.
You can also demote or promote multiple lines at a time by selecting them…Īnd then hitting the Tab or Shift+Tab keys.
