Question

Adding a space between items in a list

Is there a way in the Autonumber Format to add a return to create a blank line between items in a list? Right now, I can only do it by removing the Autonumber format for the new paragraph and then add it back in for the next line. Seems like there would be a way to add a building block for this.

By blank line, I meant space below. A building block in the autonumber format to add a return would be nice. I used the recommendation in the reply from @Error7103. It worked just fine. I now have a paragraph tag for my lists.

In the Paragraph Designer for the auto-numbered format:
Basic > Space: Below Pgf: [ <set to more than the default> ]

If you put a \r in the autonumber format, it's going to add a return between the number and the paratext, unless you are using trailing autonumbers, which is rare.

    Thank you, Error7103. Works fine. Obviously I'm new.
