Hi Tom, Try something like this:
FigureLegend: F:< >< ><n+>< =0> FigureLegend_alpha: F:< >< >< ><a+> Without seeing the rest of the numbering, I am not sure if you need the first two place holders (< >) in each one. For a good understanding of FrameMaker autonumbers, you should watch my 20 minute video: http://frameautomation.com/framemaker-autonumber-primer/ Then, watch this follow up video, which is about 16 minutes: http://frameautomation.com/advanced-autonumber-concepts/ In just over a half-an-hour, you will be an autonumber expert!

I have a figure legend that has both numbered and lettered entries. Level 1 items are numerals and Level 2 items are small letters. This works fine, as long as the level 2 items are the last items in the ordered list. However, if the level 2 items happen to appear in the middle somewhere, such as 1, 2, followed by a, b, and c, and then back to level 1 at 3, the ordering doesn't pick back at 3. Instead, I get 6, as in 1, 2, a, b, c (under 2), and 6. What do I need to do to have that 3rd level 1 item number continue from the last level 1 tag? For reference, here is what I have for tag coding. FigureLegend covers all level 1 numbers, as well as all that follow: F:< >< ><n+>.\t FigureLegend_alpha covers the first level 2 item, indented slightly under the level 1 item: F:< >< ><a+1>.\sn\t FIgurelegend_alpa+ covers all level 2 items that follow the item tagged with the FigureLegend_alpha tag: F:< >< ><a+1>.\sn\t Tom Beiswenger Project Manager, Manager IB Technical Documentation Emhart Glass Inc. 74 Kahler Road North ?
