I'm creating a template, have made all the major styles (including the
outline styles). Everything works except the numbered list style, which I
cannot figure out.
I've made a style, based it on the existing "List Number" style, and change
nothing else. This is my current Numbered List for the template.
When I apply this style to content text, it works normally the first time.
If I apply the style to a second list, it makes this second list continuous
with the first as far as the numbering goes. Below is an example of what
happens in a .doc file based on my template.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.0 CHAPTER ONE - THE PROBLEM
1.1 SECTION ONE - WHEN IT WORKS
The following items are included in XYZ concept:
1. first item, number one
2. second item, number two
3. third item, number three
Those items are awesome. etc etc.
1.2 SECTION TWO - WHEN IT DOESN'T
The following items are included in ABC concept:
4. first item, SHOULD be number one
5. second item, SHOULD be number two
6. third item, SHOULD be number three
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I click restart numbering on the #4, and then hit ctrl-z, it will
restart. It seems like I have to undo some autoformatting to get it to
restart, if I don't push control z, the restart numbering action doesn't do
anything.
If I make ANY change to the list/document after it has restarted, ALL of the
lists will revert back to continuous.
Main point: how do I correctly create a numbered list style that allows me
to have multiple numbered lists in the document.
