Hi list,

here in lyx (1.5.0svn from today) is a nice dialog for changing symbols
for "unnumbered lists" (hoping this is the right word for this):
document->settings->bullets.

Wouldn't it be nice to have the same thing for numbered lists?

For my case (judicial schemes) i need the following structure:

A. Ich
        I. möchte
        II. gerne
              1.wissen,
              2. wie
              3. man
                    a) in
                    b) Lyx
                       aa) doppelte
                           (1) Kleinbuchstaben
                           (2) mit
                       bb) Nachklammer
                       cc) wie
                       dd) hier
              4. hinbekommt
              5. in
              6. einem
              7. Nummerierungsformat!
        III. Danke
B. Schonmal
C. im
D. Voraus!

So it would be nice to be able adjusting the following things:

- Kind of Symbol (number, letter, BIGLETTER, latin, BIGLATIN,
greekletter ...)
- Quantity of Symbols (single, doube, triple..)
- Frame of Symbol(s) (right dot, right bracket, right and left bracket,
right and left arrows *just a joke* ...)

Is there a ability to adjust this at this time? Is there a plan for
implementing a dialog such this?
Right now, the enumeration labels can be adjusted with latex commands.
LyX does not support it directly.

Note that your example will never work because of a latex limit
of only 4 levels of enumeration.  Mixing enumeration and
unnumbered lists lets you go to 6 levels, but not 6 numbered
levels.

You may be able to get 6 levels by using "labeling", for some
of the levels - but then those labels won't be numbered automatically.
Or you can put the innermost levels in minipages.  But that is cumbersome
and will interfere with page breaking.
