Again on interrupted lists
I am trying really hard to understand how to produce interrupted multi-level lists in LyX/LaTeX, but I can't seem to find a way to make the wiki suggestions work. I am preparing lecture notes for a philosophy class and I need to write down the various steps of various arguments, with main premises, sub-premises, provisional conclusions, etc. Every once in a while I need to insert text between the steps to make a more general point before resuming the argument. For clarity, I need to have the steps labeled with decimal numbering (i.e.. 1. 1.1, 1.2, etc.) Here is what I tried: 1. using the paralist package a. decimal numbering is offered as one of the package options, so no problems there b. Could not find a way to interrupt/resume a list. I studied the package documentation, but could not find a way. That does not necessarily mean it's impossible, of course... 2. Using the mdwlist package a. I redefine the enumerate counters and labels to produce decimal numbering---no problems there b. Although the \interrupt \resume commands work from a level 1 item to standard text, I could not find a way to make it work from a deeper level item. That is, I can replicate the example on the wiki:: 1. First first level item 2. second first level item Standard text 3. third first level item But I *cannot* extend it to do this: 1. First first level item 1.1. First second level item Standard text 1.2 Second second level item When I try to adapt the wiki example strategy to my needs I get LaTex errors. I am attaching a short sample file below.

Stefano,
Does the attached file do the job? If so, the use of mdwlist is
overkill (I took it out); just nesting the extra text under the
appropriate list level, and making it standard environments (or whatever
environment you need) should work.
Incidentally, the LaTeX errors were the result of using
\resume{enumerate} right before \end{enumerate} (i.e., resuming the list
but then not adding any further items).

more general point before resuming the argument. For clarity, I
need to
have the steps labeled with decimal numbering (i.e.. 1. 1.1, 1.2,
etc.)
Here is what I tried:
1. using the paralist package
2. Using the mdwlist package
I recommend the enumitem package (if you are using LyX 1.6, you can
use
the attached enumitem module.
No need to explicitely \interrupt an enumeration. It just takes of the
last one *of the corresponding level* with the [resume] optional
argument
(or with the Enumerate-Resume Style provided by the module).

enumitem.module:
#\DeclareLyXModule[enumitem.sty]{Customisable Lists (enumitem)}
#DescriptionBegin
# Control the layout of enumerate, itemize and description
# with an optional argument.
# See http://dante.ctan.org/CTAN/macros/latex/contrib/enumitem/enumitem.pdf
#DescriptionEnd
# Author: Günter Milde <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Format 11
# The package enumitem provides user control over the layout of the
three
# basic list environments: enumerate, itemize and description. It
supersedes
# both enumerate and mdwlist (providing well-structured replacements
for all
# their funtionality), and in addition provides functions to compute
the
# layout of labels, and to ‘clone’ the standard environments, to
create new
# environments with counters of their own.
#
# - fancy labels and fancy refs,
# - leftmargin, labelsep and labelwidth automatically set,
# - changes applied globally or only in one of the three
# types or even in a single list (including topsep) by
# means of a sort of "inheritance",
# - several description styles (which fix some bad
# spacing, too),
# - starting value and counter resuming,
# - trivlists properly formatted,
# - control on page breaking
#
# Styling the basic lists is possible
#
# a) generally in the LaTeX preamble and
# b) per environment with optional arguments
#
# See enumitem.pdf_ for details and examples.
