First, place your cursor at the beginning of the line you want to indent.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-748602\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Place-your-cursor-at-the-beginning-of-the-line-you-want-to-indent-in-Google-Slides.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Place your cursor at the beginning of the line you want to indent in Google Slides\" width=\"540\" height=\"328\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Next, press Shift+Enter (Shift+Return on Mac). This will place the text on its own line, allowing you to indent that single line. If you skip this step and try to indent the second line, it will indent the entire paragraph.<\/p>\n<p>After that, simply press that Tab key. The single line will be indented.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-748604\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Press-tab-to-indent-the-line..png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Press tab to indent the line.\" width=\"477\" height=\"381\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Repeat this for every line of the paragraph (except the first line) to create a hanging indent.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-748605\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/A-hanging-indent-in-Google-Slides-created-with-only-keys..png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"A hanging indent in Google Slides created with only keys.\" width=\"518\" height=\"342\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This method is simple, but it does lack that fine-tuning you might need.
