Hello Les, I'm not sure what you mean by the question marks in your descriptions. Could you please explain?
I'm still having issues with the added "< >" tag not making any difference, and with the figures interfering with the section numbering (1.1, 1.2, etc.) .

If I read your message corrrectly, you want to have the figure numbers (and possibly also table numbers) increment? from 1 within each major section of the chapter containing them, and not interfere with or be altered by possible multiple levels of sub-sections.? The major section does reset them to start at one again. For this to work, the figures, tables and headings will have to be in the same numbered series (e.g. F: or H:) but you also need to use placeholders - the empty building block < > (which does not alter, nor show the value) - for counters that should not be affected. One suggestion is to create a grid of your numbering needs, so you can more easily see where you need to use the various types of numbering building block - display only (e.g. <n>), incrementing (e.g. <n+>) or ignoring (< > and note the space between the less-than and greater-than symbols) Here is how I would setup your formats, assuming only three levels of headings (as per your example).? I've added a counter for tables as well, so there are 5 total numbering positions. H:<n+>??????????????? 1 Heading (increment 1st level heading, reset all lower-level numbers: figures, ???????????????????????????????? tables and sub-headings) H:<n>-<n+>< >< >< >?? Figure 1-1 (show current heading #, increment figure #, don't change table or ????????????????????????????????? sub-headings) H:<n>< >< >.<n+>????? 1.1 Heading (display current heading #, don't change figure or table #, ?????????????????????????????????? increment 1st subhead and reset lower sub-heading) H:<n>-<n+>< >< >< >?? Figure 1-2 H:<n+>??????????????? 2 Heading H:<n>-<n+>< >< >< >?? Figure 2-1 H:<n>.< ><n+>< >< >?? Table 2.1? (show current heading #, don't change figure #, increment table #, ????????????????????????????????? don't change sub-headings) H:<n>-<n+>< >< >< >?? Figure 2-2 H:<n>< >< >.<n+>????? 2.1 Heading H:<n>-<n+>< >< >< >?? Figure 2-3 H:<n>< >< >.<n>.<n+>? 2.1.1 Heading(display current heading #, don't change figure or table, ???????????????????????????????????? show 1st subhead and increment lower sub-heading) H:<n>-<n+>< >< >< >?? Figure 2-4 and so forth.? As I'm not completely clear on how you are using either the $VolNum or $ChapNum variables (or corresponding numbering building blocks,) I have not shown those, and trust that this example will get you on the right path fairly quickly. ?

I'm not sure without looking at them, but I have a feeling that you're using the same counter position/building block for both the figures and some of your section numbers. If you look at this page, Adobe has a nice table about halfway down the page showing how to set the building blocks up. http://help.adobe.com/en_US/framemaker/using/WSF176D8C8-8133-4860-88E3-AF69262623F0.html On Thu, Dec 27, 2012 at 4:22 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Framers, > > Back on Frame after several years of being forced to use inferior products. > The hang of it is returning, but I have a strange auto numbering issue.
