View Ordered List

Displays the list in order of configuration. When you select the ordered list format, you can only move items up and down in the list. Other actions in the Actions pane do not appear until you select the unordered list format.

If you want to inherit settings from a parent level, you must revert all of the changes at the child level by using the Revert to Inherited action in the Actions pane.

Note

When items in the list are reordered at a child level, the child will no longer inherit settings from the parent level (including any items that are added to or removed from the list at the parent level) after the list is reordered. If you want to inherit settings from a parent level, you must revert all of the changes at the child level by using the Revert to Inherited action in the Actions pane.
