Hey,
I have been struggeling for a very long time but how can I add a secondary color in the numbering of Bullets & Numbering without converting the numbering to text.
I want to give the dot on the numbering another color. I don't want to do it manually anymore cause it's too much of work.

Hello @Humeyra5C94
This isn't possible with just Bullets or number. Bullets and number is a all or nothing format. I know you didn't want to do a manual process, but if you look at paragraphy styles and Nested styles you would automatically format bullets yourself, using a character style to handle the dots.
You might need to play with this a little to get it working, but from a quick test it worked fine for me.
Regards

Simplify your auto-num to: ^#
Include a Grep style: "Orange" + ^\.(?=\t)
… and run a simple regex as: Find: ^. + para style Replace by: .\t$0
For the end of the para, add a 2nd Grep style: "Orange" + [.…]$

Hi Jedi!
Do grep styles also work on the numbers of a numbered list?
I have a set of headings numbered like this: "2.1.3 Introduction", and in the paragraph style the character color is set to red.
In this example I would want the "2.1." in black, and the "3 Introduction" in red.
How can I make that happen?

Woah that's a quick respons! Never used scripts before, so that's gonna take me a lot of Googling, but I'll look into it!
