I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "isn't it a fact." Isn't what a
fact? And which fact are you referring to?

I think my request is being misunderstood. I'm not trying to get all of the
entries for every number (1s, 10s, 100s) aligned. That can be accomplished via
tab stop. I'm trying to get all of the entries aligned based on the number of
digits of the list entry: single digits all aligned with each other, but not
with the double and triple digits; double digits all aligned with each other,
but not with the triple digits, etc. I'm not sure how to communicate this
differently than I have with the screen shot and the textual visual schematic
in comment 2. I'll try to reiterate that here:

1. abcdef
   abcdef
2. abcdef
   abcdef ...
10. abcdef
    abcdef
11. abcdef
    abcdef ...
100. abcdef
     abcdef

Once again, I hope the request is clear: Provide an option to line up all
entries with the list # + additional characters. Thank you.
