Don't merge lists in Word – is it possible to set as default?
Hello,
It took me some time to find the name of that function in English.
I often have a multi-level list like the following. They are usually bullet lists, not numbered lists, but the list-styles are the real ones :
1. This is style List1
1.1. This is style List 2
1.2. This is also style List 2
1.3. This is also style List 2
2. This is style List 1
3. This is style List 1
I often want to move item 1.2 between items 2 and 3. By default, Word reformats the paragraph as a "List 1" item and each time, I have to manually click on the icon "Do not merge lists" ("Ne pas fusionner la liste" in French). Unfortunately, I have not found a way to do it automatically, which means that cut and paste is almost always a 2-step process... and when I forget to do it on the spot, It requires even more work to reformat.
My question. Is there a way to have "Do not merge lists" as the default? Because that's what I want, like 99.99% of the time.
Thank you.
BTW, versions are current:
– Windows 10, v.19043.1165 (in French)
– Office 2016 ] v. 2107, build 1428.20250 (in French)
