I have a heading with style Heading 1:

No number

I'd like the heading to be numbered so I modify the Heading 1 style using the Numbering option and add a number. This works, but the result is indented in a way which is clearly wrong:

Number with indent

I'd like there to be no indenting at all, so try modifying the style using the Paragraph setting to remove the left indent. This results in another form of clearly wrong indentation:

Number no indent

How do I get the heading that any sane person would choose which would look like this (image manipulated to achieve goal!):

Correct indentation

Alright look, after you added the Numbering option you right click on the format you are using. There you click on, which says "Ändern..." in my word and probably says something like "change" in yours. FirstPic

This window should pop up, where you click on the option, highlighted in blue in the picture, and then on ok, this should do the trick. enter image description here

It looks as though you want the number to be followed by a space rather than a tab.

If you follow the instructions in this article by Shauna Kelly you will learn how to do that, and learn the correct way to set up numbering in Word.
