Use a Special Character to Indent text independently from your text frames default left Indent
You have the ability to set your own custom Indent when working within a paragraph. Insert your type cursor before the character you want to indent, then go to the “Type” menu and choose “Special Characters > Other > Indent to Here”. An indent is now set at that point. Every line of text after that indent will now line up exactly with your custom indent. This eliminates the need for unnecessary tabbing and all the other crazy work arounds people use to do this.
If you want to speed things up, you could “Right Click” (Two button mouse) or “Control Click” (One button mouse), you could also use the keyboard shortcut “Command” + “\” (MAC) or “Control” + “\” (PC).
