I am making tables in LibreWriter. The structure is one short column
with a couple of numbers, followed by one long column with
information that I type in. The individual rows are eventually cut
out and put into stamp albums.
I've looked around for a "table row" field and I can't find one. One
of the numbers in the first column is sequential and will serve as a
page number after I stick that row into the album. It would be
wonderful if I could insert a field and have the rows number
themselves - especially for those times I go back and discover that
I left something out 50 rows before.
If there is a way of doing that...is there then a way of assigning a
specific number to the first instance and letting it increment from there?
o Click just above your first column to select it. Alternatively,
right-click in the column and go to Column > | Select.
o Open the Styles and Formatting window.
o Click the List Styles button at the top.
o Double-click one of the Numbering styles. (Try each to see which
meets your needs.)
o If you don't want the trailing tab or full stop or whatever,
right-click on the style name in the Styles and Formatting window and
select Modify... . Use the Position and Options tabs to adjust the
style to what you need.
You will notice that if you insert extra rows the numbering will
adjust itself automatically - as you ask.
You say you want additional information in that first column - which
you can indeed add. Alternatively, it may be easier to put this is an
additional column.
I trust this helps.
