Change the numbering style in a list

1. Select the text or list whose numbering style you want to change.
2. On the Format menu, click Bullets and Numbering.
3. On the Numbered tab, do any of the following:
   • To change the number style, click a style.
   • To change the size, click the arrows in the Size box.
   • To change the color, click the arrow next to Color, and either select a color from the eight choices— which represent the current color scheme— or click More Colors for additional choices.

If you're using one slide master, you can change the numbering style on the master and the change is reflected throughout the presentation. If you are using multiple slide masters (such as when you have applied more than one design template to your presentation), you must change the numbering style on each master.

1. On the View menu, point to Master, and then click Slide Master.
2. On the slide master, select the body text levels to which you want to apply the numbering style.
3. On the Format menu, click Bullets and Numbering.
4. On the Numbered tab, do any of the following:
   • To change the number style, click a style.
   • To change the size, select a number in the Size box.
   • To change the color, click the arrow next to Color, and either select a color from the eight choices— which represent the current color scheme— or click More Colors for additional choices.
5. On the Slide Master View toolbar, click Close Master View.

Note  If, before you changed the master styles, you changed the numbering style on any slides in your presentation, those changes won't be affected by style changes to the master.
