I'm writing a document in LyX. I would like every new Paragraph to be indented, and it does happen to all paragraphs beside ones that are in a new section/subsection or coming after a list. Is there a way to fix that?
(sorry if it's an extremely basic question, I couldn't find the answer anywhere)
This is what I get:
Subsection
first paragraph is not indent.
second one is
third one is
list:
1. something
2. something else
again not indent.
and I would like it to be:
Subsection
first paragraph is indent.
second one is
third one is
list:
1. something
2. something else
indent again!

To indent the first line of a paragraph, put your cursor at the beginning of the paragraph and press the tab key. When you press Enter to start the next paragraph, its first line will be indented.
LaTeX will automatically indent the first line of each paragraph that doesn't immediately follow a section heading. If you'd like to get rid of an indent, you can use the \noindent command: \section{Introduction} This is the first paragraph.
How Do You Indent a List in LaTeX? You can add additional depth to your list by first using the command \begin{enumerate} and then ending the code with \end{enumerate} for each level. Such LaTeX bullet points show up with different idents to indicate different depths.
To start a paragraph without an indent, or to continue an interrupted paragraph, use \noindent . In the middle of a paragraph the \noindent command has no effect, because LaTeX is already in horizontal mode there. The \indent command's only effect is to output a space. This example starts a fresh paragraph.
You can insert a LaTeX command (ctrl+l or insert->TeX Code) at any place in your document.
Just place your cursor at the beginning of the line you wish to force indentation on, press ctrl+l and add the code "\indent".
