The List dialogue also provides for automatic numbering of lists and user defined numbered bullets.
Roman | Letters of the | Text and |
numbers | alphabet | numbers |
The numbering system is chosen by typing a '%' into the writable icon followed by a character shown in the table below.
Command | Description | Example |
%1 | Arabic (normal) numbers | 0, 1, 2, 3... |
%i | Lowercase Roman | i, ii, iii, iv... |
%I | Uppercase Roman | I, II, III, IV... |
%4 | Dingbats 1 | ¬®¯ |
%5 | Dingbats 2 | ¶·¸¹ |
%6 | Dingbats 3 | ÀÁÂÃ |
%7 | Dingbats 4 | ÊËÌÍ |
%a | Lowercase letters | a, b, c, d... |
%A | Uppercase letters | A, B, C, D... |
%> | Right align number | 10 |
%% | Insert % | % |
%[n] | Start numbering at [n]umber | 30 |
%{n} | Add number - 1 to the number you would normally get. i.e. %{51} would renumber 1 as 51. | 50 |
%L"."%1 | legal format. L is number of containing structure | 2.12 |
Text and numbers can be combined:
Enter | To get |
Item(%i) | Item (i), Item (ii), etc. |
Article - %a | Article - a, Article - b, etc. |
%[n] (where 'n' is a number) controls the start number:
Enter | To get a starting bullet of |
%[12]%1 | 12 |
%[4]%I | IV |
%L (or l) gives legal format where 'L' represents the number of the structure containing the list.
Enter | To get a sub-list numbering of | ||
%L.%1 | 1.1, 1.2 - 2.1, 2.2 etc., | ||
|
|
For example where a numbered list contains a legal numbered sub-list.
If you specify %L.%1, for example, and the structure above the list or section is not numbered, anything between the %L and the %1 is ignored (so you won't get .1, .2 etc.).
However, if you really do want any text between %L and %1 to be included, regardless of whether %L expands to anything, enclose it in quotation marks - as in %L"."%1.
If you are exporting to MS Word you must enclose text in quotation marks.
