While you're customizing your outline numbering, glance at the Le vel drop-down list box every now and then to make sure that you're customizing what you think you're customizing. It's easy to forget in which level you're working. These settings vary not just based on outline level, but also based on the scheme from which you chose to start. Word displays the current settings for the level you've selected. Choose the level you want from the Le vel drop-down list box at the upper left. You can customize each of Word's nine levels of outline numbering separately. In the Customize Outline Numbered List dialog box, you can change and preview virtually any aspect of a numbered list.Ĭhoosing the Outline Level You Want to Customize In the Preview box, you can see how the entire outline numbering scheme behaves any changes you make are shown there immediately. The Customize Outline Numbered List dialog box opens (see Figure 18.17). Select the numbering scheme closest to the one you want and click Cus tomize. To customize outline numbering, right-click in the editing window and choose Bullets and Numbering from the shortcut menu then click the O utline Numbered tab. That's where Word's extensive Outline Numbering customization capabilities come in handy. However, your document may require a numbering scheme that isn't one of Word's default settings. If you're in a position to decide how you want your outline numbering to appear, try to use one of Word's defaults it saves you some trouble.
Outline numbering based on the second numbering scheme in the bottom row of the O utline Numbered tab. Figure 18.16 shows outline numbering applied to a sample document. Although text-shadow does not give good results if the shadow length is greater than 1px, you can always use a combination of text-shadow and text-stroke.For detailed guidance on avoiding problems with outline numbering, and troubleshooting problems that already exist, see "How to Troubleshoot Outline Numbering in Your Documents ," in the "Troubleshooting " section of this chapter.Ĭhoose the scheme you want then click OK.
Moreover, you can give blur effect with shadows which can add depth to your layout. The latter is not intended for adding outlines, but is a very good CSS hack that gives you the effect you are looking for. Although text-strokeserves the purpose by uniformly adding a smooth outline, I prefer using text-shadow due to its good browser support. ConclusionĪ slight touch of stroke can give a vibrant look to your text. There is also a third property text-outline for adding outline to text, but currently it is not supported by any browser. On the other hand, text-shadow is supported by almost all the browsers. This is supported by Chrome, Safari, Opera and Android. Browser SupportĪs discussed earlier, the text-stroke property is supported with the -webkit-prefix by the WebKit-based browsers. You can come up with more beautiful text stroke effects by combining and altering the values of different properties like color, blur radius, stroke width and so on. These were some cool effects which you can add to your text using the above properties.
