Hi,

I was wondering whether it is possible to modify the behavior of the Enumerate style in LyX so that numbering is sequential throughout the document without embedding other environments in the Enumerate environment. Most importantly, I need numbering to not restart after new Sections and Subsections. Here is an example of what I need to accomplish:

1 Section 1

1. example 1
2. example 2
   a. subexample 2a
   b. subexample 2b

Standard text between examples, not embedded. After this paragraph, numbering continues:

3. example 3
4. example 4

2 Section 2

Standard text

5. example 5
6. example 6

and so on.

I am aware of the packages covington.sty and gb4e.sty, but they conflict with some other packages I need to use on a regular basis... I even created a modified article.layout file with covington.sty as a special Numbered environment, but i was wondering if there is something simpler that I could do with \setcounter in the preamble, for example.

I have tried using the document class article (AMS, sequential numbering), but it doesn't seem to do what I described above, either.

Thanks in advance, and sorry if I missed something obvious. (I'm a LyX/LaTeX newbie.)
