Mis-indented first outline entry in the default IEEE template

[DhruvDh]

Description

When using #outline() to create an index for a document using the default IEEE template, the first outline entry is not indented correctly.

Here, the first outline is created with #outline(indent: false) and the second with #outline(indent: true)

Hello, outline(indent: true / false) are deprecated in favor of outline(indent: auto / none). Outline with automatic indent uses the numbering to determine the indentation, which can cause those problems. Can you try to specify a fixed indent instead, e.g. with outline(indent: 2em)?

#outline(indent: auto)

= Introduction
Scientific writing is a crucial part of the research process, allowing researchers to share their findings with the wider scientific community. However, the process of typesetting scientific documents can often be a frustrating and time-consuming affair, particularly when using outdated tools such as LaTeX. Despite being over 30 years old, it remains a popular choice for scientific writing due to its power and flexibility. However, it also comes with a steep learning curve, complex syntax, and long compile times, leading to frustration and despair for many researchers. @netwok2020

#outline(indent: 2em)

I expected Introduction and Method entries to be indented equally.

Thanks for the input. I've identified in the template that it seems that #set par(..., first-line-indent: 1em) is set. Can you try moving that option to your document, after the outline is placed?

I believe the problem here is that such option - perhaps a bit inadvertently - affects outline.

Thanks, this fixes it. I will close this issue and open one in the templates repository in some time.
