Technically, you're doing the same things as you did with Word styles.
Can you create additional styles in your HTML and Stylesheets? If so, then
you simply assign the style to a CSS class (such as .substep). You can then
define the .substep style in the CSS file, such as:
You could take it further, and assign the class to a regular HTML tag, such
as <li class="substep">. That way, you restrict it only to list items with a
class of substep. In this instance, you can set the stylesheet to
li.substep. One step further, you could restrict the substep to only
numbered lists: ol li.substep, or bulleted lists: ul li.substep.

> I need to get nicely formatted lists in HTML help. In typical technical

> nested underneath, or one line of unbulleted text.
>
> I know how to do this using styles in MS Word - but am now working in
> native HTML in RoboHelp (V7).
>
> I have played with the stylesheet and cannot seem to find what it is I
> need to do for the following:
>
> 1. Get the substeps (a, b, c,) etc indented UNDER the first level number
> (nested).
>
> 2. Get the indents aligned neatly under the numbering
>
> 3. Same for bullets etc.

> Thanks in advance for any help you can give. I have searched and
> searched, and don't seem to know the correct search term to find what I
