A bracketed list in InDesign

Community Beginner ,
Nov 25, 2024 Nov 25, 2024

Hi all. I am not super familiar with GREPs in InDesign. 

 

I need to create a list like this...

(a) 

(b)

(c)

 

I have managed to update it to have one bracket after the number but not sure how to get the bracket before the letter. Any help would be appreciated!

Just add opening bracket:

"^#" represents one character - same way as "^t" - and it means "current level".

 

For lower levels - you can use higher level - "^1" will insert value of the 1st level. You can insert them using the small triangle on the right of the "Number" field.
