Enumerate numbering is out of page

Question

I have nested enumerations in my article. The numbering of enumeration is modified.

\renewcommand{\labelenumi}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}} 
\renewcommand{\labelenumii}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}.%
                            \arabic{enumii}} 
\renewcommand{\labelenumiii}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}.%
                             \arabic{enumii}.\arabic{enumiii}} 
\renewcommand{\labelenumiv}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}.%
                            \arabic{enumii}.\arabic{enumiii}.%
                            \arabic{enumiv}}

The numbers of my items are out of page. How to align them properly?

I saw this post. Did not help.

MWE

Still, the post you cited should contain the solution to your problem. Could you provide a minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates what goes wrong? Also related: Enumerate with Properties. — Stephan Lehmke, Nov 28 '12 at 15:34

One possibility is to adjust the value for the \leftmargini length (in my example code I removed some packages that were not relevant for the problem and its solution):

\documentclass[a4paper, 10pt, twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\usepackage[hmargin=0.1cm,vmargin=2cm]{geometry}
\setlength{\columnsep}{0.2cm}
\setlength{\columnseprule}{0.4pt}

\renewcommand{\labelenumi}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}} 
\renewcommand{\labelenumii}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}.%
                            \arabic{enumii}} 
\renewcommand{\labelenumiii}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}.%
                             \arabic{enumii}.\arabic{enumiii}} 
\renewcommand{\labelenumiv}{\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic{enumi}.%
                            \arabic{enumii}.\arabic{enumiii}.%
                            \arabic{enumiv}}

\begin{document}
\raggedbottom

\section{Direction Fields} % (fold)

\section{Critical Points}

\section{Population Models}
\subsection{Model of Malthus}
\subsection{Model of Verhulst - Saturation}

\addtolength\leftmargini{9pt}
\begin{enumerate}
    \item Item 1 
    \item Item 2 
\end{enumerate}

\end{document}

In the above approach, probably you will also have to adjust \leftmarginii, etc. Another option is to use the enumitem package to do the job (no need for manual adjustments), since you are already loading it (notice also that the customization of the labels is much simpler using the package):

\documentclass[a4paper, 10pt, twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\usepackage[hmargin=0.1cm,vmargin=2cm]{geometry}
\usepackage{enumitem}

\setlength{\columnsep}{0.2cm}
\setlength{\columnseprule}{0.4pt}

\setlist[enumerate,1]{label=\bfseries\thesubsection.\arabic*}
\setlist[enumerate,2]{label*=\bfseries.\arabic*} 
\setlist[enumerate,3]{label*=\bfseries.\arabic*} 
\setlist[enumerate,3]{label*=\bfseries.\arabic*}
\setlist[enumerate]{leftmargin=*}

\begin{document}
\raggedbottom

\section{Direction Fields} % (fold)

\section{Critical Points}

\section{Population Models}
\subsection{Model of Malthus}
\subsection{Model of Verhulst - Saturation}

\begin{enumerate}
    \item Item 1 
    \item Item 2 
\end{enumerate}

\end{document}
