Default
To control the distance between the number and the text that follows on the first text line, adjust the "Add tab stop at" setting for the affected numbering level(s). Some trial and error will be required to find the suitable value.

Note that the "Text indent" value should be the same if you are setting up a hanging indent with the number.
