Is there a keyboard shortcut to indent a nested bullet point in a table cell the proper way?

Open Word and insert a table (1 x 1 will work just fine).



Right-click in the table and, in the context menu, select "Bullets" and a bullet image from the bullet library.



enter image description here



Type something and press enter.



Type something else, but, instead of clicking enter, right-click and select "Increase Indent"



enter image description here



Notice something else moves into the proper indentation of a nested bullet:



enter image description here



Outside of a Word table, you would simply press tab to get this behavior, but I want a keyboard shortcut (if available) to do this inside the table.



This is what I've tried:





  • Ctrl + Tab: Just indents the text, not the bullet


  • Ctrl + T: Same as Ctrl + Tab


  • Ctrl + M: Indents the text and the bullet but does not change the
    bullet style


Can this be done outside the right-click context menu?

          In at least Word 2010, you can use Shift+Alt+/ to increase/decrease the indent in a bulleted or numbered list.

          • When combined with @user222101's comment, this is a perfect solution. Enter twice to go up/left a level, and Shift + Alt + -> to go down/right a level.

          Press Enter twice. It works. The first one creates the next nested line at the current indent, but the second stroke decreases the indent to the previous indent and section heading.

          • This i a very simple (and effective) solution to move up one level when on the second level (or deeper) in a bulleted list, inside a table. It even remembers where you have the margins set for each level, if you customized them (which I always do when bulleting inside a table, to avoid extraneous leading whitespace). Thanks!

          For mac word 2011 also see,





          • Cmd+Shift+M to decrease indentation of bullet


          • Control+Shift+M to increase indentation of bullet






          share|improve this answer























          • In Word for Windows, this does not change the style of the bullet to the default for that indent level. See the other answers if you want that.

          You can record a macro (using the Developer tab), and assign it to a keyboard shortcut combination.
          (Using the Macro Recorder is the easiest way to set this up, but you could also just insert the command Selection.Range.ListFormat.ListIndent in the macro VBA.

              You might also try Alt+Right Arrow. It's bound to function IncreaseIndent in Word 2010.

                Press Enter twice. It works. The first one creates the next nested line at the current indent, but the second stroke decreases the indent to the previous indent and section heading.

                • This i a very simple (and effective) solution to move up one level when on the second level (or deeper) in a bulleted list, inside a table. It even remembers where you have the margins set for each level, if you customized them (which I always do when bulleting inside a table, to avoid extraneous leading whitespace). Thanks!

                You can record a macro (using the Developer tab), and assign it to a keyboard shortcut combination.
                (Using the Macro Recorder is the easiest way to set this up, but you could also just insert the command Selection.Range.ListFormat.ListIndent in the macro VBA.
