Before and After
As required, you can specify text to be added before and/or after the number
that TextMaker will assign to the paragraph. For example, if you want the numbers
surrounded by dashes (-1-, -2-, -3- etc.), you should select the Format 1,
2, 3 and enter “-“ in each of the Before and After fields.
Format
Here you specify the format for the numbering. Besides the usual “1., 2., 3., ...”
you can select, for example, letters (A, B, C, ...) or Roman numerals (I, II, III,
...).
Numbering starts with ...
By default, TextMaker starts every enumeration with “1”. If you want to use a
different starting value, enter it here.
Skip numbering
It is often the case that a numbered list includes an individual item that needs to
span more than a single paragraph. In such a case, only the item’s first paragraph
should be numbered; numbering should skip succeeding paragraphs that
belong to that item and resume only with the paragraph that constitutes the following
item.
TextMaker provides the Skip numbering option for such a situation. When
numbered paragraphs that are to be grouped as one item with a preceding numbered
paragraph have been selected, you can check this option to cause Text-
Maker to skip these paragraphs when assigning numbers.
Character button
You can click on this button to change the character formatting (font, size,
emphasis, etc.) for the numbers.
Horizontal position
Allows you to specify how far the text should be indented to the right to make
room for the numbers.
Vertical position
Allows you to specify the vertical position of the numbers. Negative values
cause the numbers to be lowered; positive values cause them to be raised.
