In InDesign CC Is there a way to add multiple paragraphs in each list item of a list?
I’m not talking about nesting levels but e.g a single bulleted or numbered item that is more than one paragraph long.
while I could “Soft Line Break” — Shift+Enter and then add some spacing, is a better way of doing this?
Often what I’ll do is create a second paragraph style with the indent being the same as the bullet point. Then I’ll set up “next style” options and use it whenever I need to. It’s not necessarily automatic, but does work faster than the soft line break and you have some more control over it.
I’d refrain from using soft returns most of the time.
Creating multiple level paragraph styles will give you far greater control overall.
