17.3.1.1 adjustRightInd

This element specifies whether the right indent shall be automatically adjusted for the given paragraph when a document grid has been defined for the current section using the docGrid element (17.6.5), modifying of the current right indent used on this paragraph.

[Note: This setting is used in order to ensure that the line breaking for that paragraph is not determined by the width of the final character on the line. end note]

If this element is omitted on a given paragraph, its value is determined by the setting previously set at any level of the style hierarchy (i.e. that previous setting remains unchanged). If this setting is never specified in the style hierarchy, its value is assumed to be true.

[Example: Consider a paragraph in which the right indent on the current paragraph should not be automatically determined based on the character pitch set in the document grid. This setting would be specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:p>
  <w:pPr>
    <w:adjustRightInd w:val="false" />
  </w:pPr>
</w:p>

By explicitly setting the val to false, this paragraph uses its specified right indent settings regardless of the presence of the document grid for the parent section. end example]

This element’s content model is defined by the common boolean property definition in 17.17.4.
