Any way to set an absolute numbering scheme that is independent?

[Syed.Hosain]

Hi, all.

I am trying to set up a mechanism to use an absolute numbering scheme for 
certain paragraphs that is *independent* of the other numbering in the document.

For example, I may have a Heading 1 that increases 1, 2, 3, etc., Heading 2 
that increases 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc. (and gets reset to .1 in each Heading 1), 
etc.

But, independent of these, I have some paragraphs (currently inside tables) 
that need to have a number that also auto-increments (like Spec 1, Spec 2, 
etc.) but *completely* independently from the chapter and section numbering! 
The reason I want to use *automatically* is obvious ... if I insert a paragraph 
into the document with that format, I want to have all the later ones after 
that point automatically get updated with the auto-number.

I looked for a Autonumber Format in Building Block that I could use for this 
purpose (in the Paragraph Designer), but no luck. Getting the letters Spec  
in there is easy, but there does not seem to be a numbering scheme that I can 
use for this ...

So ... is there any way to achieve the desired result?

Ah!

 

Thanks much, Pat!!!

 

I think I was missing one important piece in my knowledge/efforts ...
the x you mention below - to get the number into its own series. I
will try that!

 

Thanks again,

 

Z

Hi Z,

If I understand what you're asking, it should be pretty easy. Add this
to the para numbering style: n+. If you want it in it's own series, at
this: x:n+ where x is any letter that is not being used by another
number scheme.

RE: Any way to set an absolute numbering scheme that is independent?

[Syed.Hosain]

Worked perfectly, Pat!

In fact, if I had just tried it with the word Spec  like I showed
below, I would have not even had to ask the question! Those letters
appear to act like the x you mentioned.

I did make a new paragraph format for this table cell too, and that also
may have been part of the knowledge that I was missing before.

Thanks much again,

Z
