Hi,
I have a bulleted list of numbers and I'd like each number to be followed by a thin double line. Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks very much.
Nope! If you wanna cover all the para, choose the shading stroke!
Here is a simple example of numbering with a vertical bar in the numbering area. Then added a character style to enlarge the type size and baseline shift. Left and first line indent take care of pushing the text over.

I have no imagination! Could you post a screenshot? Thanks!

Use a paragraph border!

A paragraph border for each number? The list will go up to 200. Is there a way to automate this?

thats what the "text after" option in your bullet styles in for. see below. you can put anything you want in there.

Thank you. Is there a way I can edit that line - to make it thinner or 2 lines right next to each other?

I tried doing what you posted Jonathan and that's really what I need to use. I just want to be able to edit that line, by making it different to the standard. It's coming out very thick and I want a much thinner line.

Sorry but truly bad way with totally no control!

If you introduce another point as an auto-num until 3 digits (200), here's another cool way:
Draw a graphic line and anchor it in the first para and associate it to an object style to get more controls.
Don't use a "tab" but a space to define the gap between text and numbering. Like that you will just need one para style!
Finally, play this simplistic regex:

I tried this idea - but I cant seem to get it work

As indicated in the Grep Find form, there are 2 chars to be selected in the first para (template)! …
• The "image anchor":
• … and the "special char that allows the re-alignment of the left side of the para":
Why include these 2 special chars in the Grep Find form?
Simply because if you finally want to change the "image" (here, a simple curved line with a gradient and an effect) everywhere, the regex will do it!
If more info about the Grep code I use, ask to the Grep experts.
Last point: you never get such a visual result trying to play with just an auto-num! 😉
Just For Comment, a more sophisticated game (… but always just 1 click!):

Thank you so much for the help. I'm working through it now. Really appreciated!
