I found the following. You open the Modify Dialog for style
OrgDescriptionList. Here you choose tab Position. Then you can modify
indentation for level 1 and 2.

Example:
org mode:

  - dog :: is an animal 

In odt document

   dog 
      is an animal

Then dog is level 1 and 'is an animal' is level 2.


Then as previously described the style could be saved in an .ott file
and be specified in the org file itself.


Hope this helps.
