Why can't define paragraph ball in the standard paragraph style?

I want to configure my standard paragraph style so that I can quickly apply the individual paragraphs balls - using MY favorite dashes - without having to create a new style to the paragraphs of the ball. I tried to change the settings of the standard paragraph, with no document open style, but he doesn't seem to accept my choice of dashes. First of all, I selected bullets and put a dash, but then the default paragraph with bullets. When I pass the ball setting back to "none" the only thing he keeps is the last setting that I chose for the tabs. (At the same time, which changes the default tab for all paragraphs setting.) But when I create a new doct and start a paragraph of the ball, the hyphens by default always a.25 /-.25 and any tab setting LOWER a.25 results in the updated first line indented for the tab setting, but the rest of the paragraph indented a.25. There seems to be no way to change default indentation for bullets without creating a new paragraph style. And usually I'm fine with that. But I thought that I would have a default Quick using the standard paragraph style. Am I missing something or is it just not possible?

Here is a Visual/verbal screenshot to help explain:

Let's see if I understand differently from others. You want to apply bullets manually from time to time without having to select a new style, you would do this by pressing the button bulleted list in the Control Panel, and you want the settings for tabs and indents, other than the default. Is this correct?

Far as I can tell there is no way to do it. You cannot configure the settings for the chips unless the text cursor is active or if you set a style, there is no way to set up the new default values. You don't want to not set parameters whenever you need a ball, then either you type the balls by hand, tab and insert a hyphen character here, which is actually a lot more work, or you go ahead and set up the style. You can access the list of style in the menu drop-down control panel, or you can add a keyboard shortcut to give you quick access, or press Ctrl (Cmd on Mac) + entry for quick access to apply and start typing the name of the style (almost as fast as a keyboard shortcut).
