Tools for bulleted and numbered lists. List definitions are separate from styles. Click on the arrows next to the list tools to display a list style gallery and the options for opening the list dialogs.

Clicking on the main line spacing button successively increases the line spacing of the text at the cursor. The menu displayed with the arrow on the right of the button allows you to select a range of individual line spacing options.

Keep with Next, Keep Together, Word Wrap:

Be careful with the keep together options. If you over-use them you can create oversized unbreakable blocks that run off the bottom of the page.

Keep with next and keep together are only active in PDF and Word output.

Text marks:

Clicking this tool displays paragraph end markers and tab characters in your text so that you can see them more easily. You can turn this on permanently with the settings in View > Program Options > Editor.
