No, actually. The documentation says to use "margins" but that
command does not seem to work for sub-lists. Unless my notation is
wrong, it would seem that the margin values for a sub-list are
hardcoded.
For example, the following code does NOT work for me:
\startitemize[n]
\item top level
\startitemize[a][margin=5cm]
\item sub item 1
\item sub item 2
\stopitemize
\stopitemize
"Margin" has no effect on the sublist...
