Numbered lists property sheet
This property sheet provides control over the creation of numbered lists. A
numbered list has special features that distinguish it from a simple enumeration:
the layout of a numbered list can be saved and reused. In addition, a numbered
list can have a hierarchical organization (1., 1.1., 1.1.1, etc.).
Information about numbered lists is presented in the next section.
Numbered lists
Advanced TextMaker users will already appreciate the advantages of paragraph
styles, which are described in chapter “Styles”. You can save a frequently needed
paragraph format in a paragraph style and then apply it over and over again to any
paragraphs you wish.
Something similar is available for enumerations: numbered lists.
These work somewhat like paragraph styles: When you want to apply a certain
kind of enumeration frequently in a document, set up a numbered list. When you do
so, a dialog like the one for simple enumerated and bulleted lists will appear. It will
allow you to specify precisely the kind of numbering and the number format you
want.
Afterwards, you can apply the layout of your numbered list to any paragraphs you
like. The paragraphs will then be given a numbering exactly as you specified in
your numbered list.
A further advantage: If you subsequently change the formatting of the numbered
list, the paragraphs formatted with this list will change accordingly.
Using hierarchical lists
Numbered lists have the additional advantage that they allow the creation of
hierarchical enumerations.
While simple lists (like 1., 2., 3. etc.) have only one level, hierarchical lists can
have several levels. For example, a hierarchical list might look like this:
1.
1.1.
1.2.
