Hi,
I have just tried setting an indent for a paragraph and found that the units are stuck in character units, not in the one I had, centimetres. I can’t seem to change it. Also, the spacing above and below the paragraph is set to line units. This is less concerning, except I can’t figure out how to change it to anything else. Any ideas?
