First paragraph indentation

Scrivener Scrivener for Windows
1

I am trying to set up Scrivener so that there is no indentation for the first paragraph of a chapter or section, but there is indentation for the paragraphs that follow. This is how it looks in most books.

Is there a way to do this automatically? I checked out the Editor tab of Options but it seems like I can only automatically set indentation for ALL paragraphs, rather than just the opening paragraph of a document.

Sorry if this has been asked before but having trouble finding an answer!

No, there’s no support in Scrivener for this at the moment; it would need to be done post-compile in a word processor or e-book editor like Sigil.

Thanks. It would be a useful feature to have if it can be added in a future release. For now I’ll just use the ruler on individual paragraphs.
