I'm so sorry, Lin. My parents always told me that Lynn could be either a man's name or a woman's, but Lynne was always a woman's. They didn't mention other spellings and certainly never anticipated that gender-specific terminology would become a social flaw.     --Lynne On 6/15/2021 1:27 PM,

Re: [Framers] Paragraph numbering

In addition to Lynne's excellent explanation, I'd like to add that while you can leave the trailing placeholders out of your autonumber definitions, it is generally recommended that they be used so that you have a visual reminder of how many characters are included. This becomes really important

Re: [Framers] Paragraph numbering

Debbie,     Lin's example uses some options in FrameMaker's counter support that you didn't mention in your post: 1. Different sequences. If a paragraph's autonumber starts with a single character followed by a colon, it uses counters that are independent of those in other sequences. One

Re: [Framers] Small caps in paragraph numbering

Most appendices use letters rather than numbers. This helps distinguish them from the main body of the text. Even if we put "Chapter" or "Appendix" in the label, it's still easy to confuse them if both use numbers. Plus, if you're using numbered headings, you now have TWO sets of 1.1.3 and can't

OH! OK, I see what you mean. You're right, small caps doesn't affect capital letters, only lowercase, and as far as I know that's how it's always been since the idea was to substitute the lowercase glyphs with glyphs that resembled the uppercase letters at a lower height and lighter weight. On

Re: [Framers] Small caps in paragraph numbering

The problem is Small Caps doesn't work at all if the character was uppercase to begin with. IMO it's a design flaw in the Small Caps concept, but that's just me. Small Caps won't work unless the text is lowercase. And setting the chapter number to capital letters makes the variable hold an

Re: [Framers] Small caps in paragraph numbering

I think the problem is that the autonumber is set by the Chapter Number and in this case it's set to capital letters (since it's an appendix). I suppose I could set the numbering to lowercase letters but that would cause problems elsewhere. The best workaround I've found is to define a character
