I prefer not to have to use refsect1, etc., and I wasn't expecting to mix the two.
But when I want to add a refsection inside a top-level refsection, I can't do it in XXE. If I hand-edit a refsection in there, there is no problem, and I can add more 'sub-refsections' at the same level, but again, I can't add another 'sub-sub-refsection'. To be clear, when I say that I can't do it in XXE, I mean that if I click on the 'insert after' (or 'insert before' or 'convert') button in the edit tab on the right of the screen, the resulting list doesn't give me the option of 'refsection' anywhere inside a top-level refsection. If I select the entire refsection, I am only able to add another top-level refsection. Maybe I'm missing something obvious, and I just don't know how to get XXE to do what I want. For now, it's OK for me to be adding the second-level refsections by hand, but if there is an easier way to do this, I'd obviously love to know. Thanks for a great product!
