RFE: in lists automatically adjust indent & tab according to font size

[DIV]

Hi, all.

I find it's good that Editor supports formatting as a bulleted list or numbered list. However, the downside is that the indent and tab are currently of a fixed size in both base text and comments.

See attachment for example.

PDF_fixedIndentForLists_RevA.pdf

In moderate-sized text (say, about 12 points) this looks OK.
But in tiny text (e.g. 5 points) this will create a problem where the indent and tab will appear oversized.
And in huge text (not shown) this will create a problem where the indent and tab will appear undersized.

I suggest that the indent & the tab should be automatically adjusted according to the font size.

Of course, a complication arises if the text is not of uniform font-size. Microsoft has handled this in Word (or PowerPoint?) by associating the bullet with the paragraph mark. For Editor I would suggest associating the indent and tab size with whatever character immediately follows the bullet. AFAIK, this is already how Editor determines the size of the bullet itself, so I imagine it might be able to be linked in with that existing functionality.

Follow-up, a couple of points to note:

• I am aware of the possibility to manually emulate a numbered or bulleted list, per https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?p=119128&hilit=bullet#p119128 — but it's inconvenient, and also not æsthetically pleasing, because there's no hanging indent;
• it seems that bulleted lists and numbered lists are relatively new features in Editor (by popular demand! https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?p=156454&hilit=bullet#p156454 ), dating from circa 2020 or 2021, so it may be understandable if some subtleties may not have been included as yet.

Hello, DIV

Thank you for the excellent suggestion for improvement. I have created a feature request for this topic:
