Okay, you're modifying a heading style. So you go to Format | Style and
click Modify. In the Modify Style dialog there is a Format button. If you
click that you get a menu that includes Paragraph and Numbering. Which one
are you choosing in order to get the dialog in which you are changing the
"Indentation/After Text" setting?
