Custom numbered list

My Pages '09 only has Roman and Arabic. How do I implement numbered list in Devanagari?

I think you would have to create such a list manually.
You can ask Apple to add the feature you want via

Custom Numbered List Sequence (example: F, G, H, J, K)

Hey all,
Is it possible to create a custom numbering sequence for a numbered list in InDesign?
For example, rather than have my list go: F, G, H, I, J, K, we'd like to skip the I at every iteration and go straight to J.
The reason for this is I work for a testing company, and our answer sheets don't have the letter I on them.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
Yes. Really simple:
Like this:

Using custom numbered lists

I want to create section headings that looks like this:
1.0 PROJECT SCOPE
1.1 Introduction
1.1.1 Work By Others
By default Pages starts numbered lists like:
1. PROJECT SCOPE
How do I get pages to formatt numbered lists like I want above? This style of formatting is quite typical when creating work scopes for engineering purposes, at least where I come from.
Thanks!

(1) I'm an end user like you so, I can't change the application's design.
If you think that useful feature is missing, use the dedicated channel :
Go to "Provide Pages Feedback" in the "Pages" menu , describe what you wish.
Then, cross your fingers, and wait at least for iWork'11 or 12 ;-)
(2) No, I don't offer such tutorials.
I'm a retired potter and don't wish to be linked to such a task.
I write here when I want, assuming that I may help this or that user.
An other helper, peterBreis offers such a service but, as it's not the way I behave, I never took time to write his site's link somewhere.
(3) Pages is a tool for the rest of us, not a tool dedicated to users with professional requirements.

Creating Custom Bullets & Lists in Pages 5.0

I cannot figure out how to create a custom numbered list in Pages 5.0. I had custom LISTS on my 4.3 Docs that did not migrate to 5.0. How do I create duplicate LIST STYLE in 5.0?
Thank you for your help.

On the format menu on the right side, there is the font section, alignment section, spacing section, and bullets & lists section. Next to the bullets & lists section is a drop-down menu of preset lists. At the top-right of this menu is a plus sign. Clicking on this will allow you to create a new list in that menu and title it. From there, you will have to manually create your custom list change the type of bullets (numbers, roman numerals, letters, etc.) -- you might need to click on the disclosure triangle to the left of the bullets & lists title to see this part. When you finish with your custom list, there will be an asterik next to the title of the list, and if you click on that title, the drop-down menu will open up again and you can hit "Update" next to your list name. This should save the style for that custom list. Here is the most important part: When you have finished making this list, make sure you save the document as a template and select that template if you ever want to use that list. I have found that a custom list in a document (saved or deleted) that is not made into a template does not carry over into other documents. Setting up this custom list may take a while, but hopefully it will work and make things easier. I hope this makes sense, and let me know if you cannot understand something. Hopefully this picture will help too.

How do I restart a numbered list?

Hello all,
First of all, I have to say, I can't believe how long it is taking me to set up my project. It seems like the most basic functionality in FM does not translate easily to RH. The lack of documentation around TCS3 Frame to Robohelp linking is simply unbelievable. Am I the only one who is frustrated and missing deadlines because of this?
Anyway, I have encountered another problem with numbered lists.
My list consists of two Framemaker paragraph tags. One that sets the counter back to 1 (used for the first item in a list), and then another tag for list items 2 and onwards.
Here is the problem:
I am using the Multilevel lists feature to set up my lists, which, for the most part works fine.
The only problem I am encountering is this:
when I have two lists within the same topic, I cannot get the second list to restart at 1! Has anyone been able to figure this out with the multilevel lists?
I know I can manually reset the counter from within Robohelp, but that defeats the purpose of linking my FrameMaker document. I cannot go and find all my lists in Robohelp and restart the numbering there. There has to be an automated way to do this.
Any ideas?
thanks.
Sue

Jeff:
I wonder if you had any luck creating a style that starts at one and mapping to it? I tried to do something similar, but ultimately came up against all the same problems I've been experiencing from the beginning linking FM>RH with numbered lists.
If you map to a single Paragraph and associated Multilevel List Style, you get this:
Heading 1
1.
2.
3.
Heading 2
4.
5.
6.
I thought I would be clever and try to duplicate the method for restarting numbered lists in FM (two styles, the initial number with style and <n=1> and subsequent number mapped to one style using <n+>.
I created two RH Paragraph Styles to map over. For each Paragraph Style, I used Autonumber, Create/Edit Custom Sequence to try to mimic this numbering sequence. The first style starts and one, and that works fine. But you run into the same problem when you create the second Autonumber list that starts at 2:
Heading 1
1.
2.
3.
Heading 2
1.
4.
5.
To be more clear, this is only a problem when you have more than one numbered list on the same page using the same numbering style.
This is a huge problem for those linking FM files in RH. Leaving the style as "source" in the mapping is unacceptable. For me it trails off the left side of the page and you cannot even see the number.
The only thing that comes close to a workaround is "convert to text." But the formatting is just terrible. There is no way to control the indentation between the number and the beginning text in the list. Since all of our documentation is task-oriented, with numbered steps, suddenly this shortcoming has just doomed all of our documentation to a terribly sloppy and unprofessional aesthetic.
If anyone has any other insights regarding how this could work, please contact me.
Thanks,
Douglas

RH8 conversion (bullet images and numbered lists are different)

Version 8.0.2.208
Conversion of 1200 htm files.
Has anyone experience bullet images in their custom styles changing from RH7 to RH8 and numbers in numbered lists resized?
Bullets
I noticed that all my bullet images have changed. They are OK in Design view, but change when the topics are previewed and generated.
For example, if the style used a small square bullet image, it was changed to the bullet used at the beginning of this sentence.
If I attempt to create a new bullet list in the existing topic using the Normal style (Arial 12) and Formatting Toolbar (Bullets), the bullet and text are changed to (Arial 10) and the style name changes to (none) in Design view. Preview and generated is also Arial 10 for both.
Numbered Lists
Most of the existing converted topics used the Normal style and Formatting Toolbar (Numbers) for numbered lists. There is spacing between each numbered line. The numbers and text are in (Arial 12) in Design view, but the numbers are (Arial 10) when the topics are previewed and generated and the text remains (Arial 12).
If I select the numbered list, click the numbered list icon to turn off numbering, and then click to turn on numbering, the numbers and text are (Arial 10) and the style is changed to (none). Output and preview are (Arial 10). The spacing between the numbered items is deleted.
I have to then highlight that list and change the style back to Normal for (Arial 12) text.
If I attempt to create a new numbered list in the existing topic using the Normal style (Arial 12) and Formatting Toolbar (Bullets), the bullet and text are changed to (Arial 10) and the style name changes to (none) in Design view. Preview and generated is also Arial 10 for both.
This has taken up a lot of my time. Any clues?
Donna

I went to the link you provided.I am still confused as to the step by step procedure to fix my custom bullet style that is used throughout my project. Can you globally fix this issue? It would be too time consuming to figure out where in 1200 topics this style is used. I guess I don't understand list styles.
Custom Style = BulletList
My custom (BulletList) style - Design mode:
Preview mode (incorrect)
Another topic using ths sam (BulletList) style - Preview mode (incorrect should be square bullets)
I select Format > Styles in design mode. Right-click on BulletList, select Edit.
If I ceate a bulleted list, the square bullet is selected.

(none) style gets applied to numbered list & font size not matching text in my style sheet

RoboHelp 9 (9.0.2.271)
Something is wrong with my style sheet, and it only started happening after I created Master Page for the first time. This happens whether or not the new Master Page is applied to a topic: Every time I type any text in a topic, then click the Numbered List icon in the toolbar, the style goes from Normal to (none), and the font changes from my style sheet's Normal 10pt to 8pt, for the number as well as the text.
I don't see how the new Master Page has anything to do with it because it's not applied to this particular topic. I had created a Master Page in RoboHelp HTML and applied my style sheet, then my topics to it. I have a footer in the Master Page and applied 8pt font using inline formatting (not the style sheet).
I created a new project to see what would happen.
When I apply my style sheet, then apply the numbered list to text, the text font is correct (10pt), but the number font is wrong (8pt).
But when I apply the default style sheet to the topic, the number font and text font match.
How can I get the number and text fonts to match in my style sheet?
I found a workaround by applying inline formatting to the next (10pt) after selecting the text and clicking the numbered list icon. Below is the html code. The numbered steps in red are the ones that are not correct (8 pt). The code with the correct formatting (after I applied inline formatting) is in blue.
<body>
<h1>My Overview</h1>
<p>example</p>
<ol type="1">
<li>first step</li>
<li>second step</li>
</ol>
<ol type="1">
<li style="font-size: 10pt;">Fixed by applying inline formatting to
10pt after selecting the numbered list icon</li>
<li style="font-size: 10pt;">next step</li>
</ol>
<p> </p>
<?rh-placeholder type="footer" ?>
</body>
Thanks.

Amebr,
That was helpful. I'm looking at a topic now, and both the Apply Style list on the Formatting toolbar show (none) when I click a numbered list that I created using the Created a Numbered List or Create a Bulleted List on the toolbar.
This is the html code for the correct font (10pt):
<ol>
<li class="p">this is the (none) style when I use the numbering button
on the toolbar (which is inline formatting)</li>
<li class="p">this is the (none) style when I use the numbering button
on the toolbar (which is inline formatting)</li>
<li class="p">this is the (none) style when I use the numbering button
on the toolbar (which is inline formatting)</li>
</ol>
Both styles list show the correct custom styles I created for numbered lists, though. Below is the code (correct font):
<ol>
<li class="p-ProcedureSteps"><p class="ProcedureSteps">this is from
my custom numbered style and looks correct</p></li>
</ol>
What's strange is, if I create a list and highlight it, then click the Apply Numbered List button in the toolbar, the numbers and text font size changes to 8 point and my Normal font is 10 pt, and both style lists show (none). That's what I wanted to figure out in my original post. I opened up the stylesheet and I don't see where that's applied. In Flare, you can easily see in a table how the styles are formatted, down to each class.
This is the code for the incorrect font (8pt):
<ol type="1">
<li>why is this 8pt?</li>
<li>why is this 8pt?</li>
<li>why is this 8pt?</li>
</ol>
Below is a screenshot.
Maybe someone can figure this out. Thanks!

Numbers-Auto Generating a numbered list in a column of cells

Having trouble creating an auto-generating numbered list in a single column. In text inspector I choose bullets>numbers>start at 1. The first cell is filled in with a "1", but when I hit return or down arrow the 1 disappears. If I go back and type a "1" again, two "1's" appear in the same cell. I'm trying to make a table with 250 rows. Not sure what I'm missing, as I'm new to iWork.

Numbers can fill a column or row of cells with a pattern. Type the first two numbers in the first two cells, select both cells, then click on the small circle at the lower right of the second cells & drag down to fill however many cells you want. You can see in this picture that it works for other patterns, not just consecutive numbers. I've also used it to fill across month names or dates.

The bullet list, numbered list and the normal text is not converting when I am converting from RH 9 to MS Word 2010

Hi all,
Greetings for the day
I am created a new CSS in Robohelp 9. I have also created a new template in Word 2010. The style sets for different information elements like (Heading, bullets, body text, ) are more or less same between the CSS and the new templates. I am also able to map the .css styles to Word template when I am converting from RH to Word as I am getting the necessary option in the drop-down list.
However, when the output is generated, the bullet, the numbered list and the body text is not converting at all. The body text works sometimes. However, the numbered list and bullet list is coming out as images.
If anybody knows the solution, I can share the .css and Word template.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Parag Deb

Create a new project with two or three topics containing lists of both types. Generate a printed output that shows the problem. Then zip it up and send it to me. See the Contact page on my site for instructions.

Plug-in for bullets and numbered lists in Mail??

Does anyone know of any plug-ins for the Mail app to do bullets and numbered lists like Entourage??
The lack of this functionality really makes Mail kinda lame and unusable for me.
Thanks!

Paul,
the fact that Mail does not support bullit lists is not an oversight but was done on purpose. It may look good on your computer when you compose the message, but you have little influence in the way recipients see that message. It can get very messy, I can assure you.
If you want a perfect layout, compose in a wordprocessor and save as PDF, send that as an attachment.

Several separate numbered lists in one text thread?

I'm working on a booklet in which there are several numbered list that are independent of each other.
How do I set the numbering options so that there would be one list
(eg. A paragraph style, which is numbered, and then, inside the paragraphs there would go an independent numbered list, that starts at nro: 1 as well)?
I’m working with Adobe InDesign CC 2014.
The situ at the moment is as shown in the picture below. Eg. the list in the view should be numbered 1,2,3... and not 1,1,1...
And the option "Restart Numbers at This Level After:..." is not abled.

you have to choose Continue from Previous Number
you have to change your Mode Start at in Continue from Previous Number

Numbered lists in text boxes automatically updating

I have seperate text boxes that are involved in numbered lists, and I want to be able to reorder the text boxes so that they automatically update the numbers within them. How do I do this?! As you can see when I move the text box containing 2.0 numbered list, the following numbers do not update. How do I create this updating numbered list in seperate text boxes?

If you mean the text function in the drawing toolbar, it isn't possible.
You should use frames.

How can I customize Microsoft Word Outline Numbered List Templates with AppleScript?

I wrote an applescript to set up a word document with the appropriate styles to give the document an academic setup, much like what Xelatex produces. This is a work in progress and I have a problem.
I have successfully applied the style changes to each Header and I have applied the desired outline numbered list template "list template 5 of list gallery 3", however I would like to add tab stops to each one in order to make each header look slick like in Latex.
To do what I want manually in Microsoft Word 2011 mac I would click Bullets and Numbering, customize, under text position i would check the tab stop box and put in some value (1 cm, for example)
The following is an approximation of the result of running this script on a document with headings 1-9 applied consequently to each line, respectively. Note how they are not even. I think this is an issue with the template, but I want to be able to run this script on any mac without extra template files.
1    Heading 1
1.1    Heading 2
1.1.1    Heading 3
1.1.1.1    Heading 4
1.1.1.1.1    Heading 5
1.1.1.1.1.1 Heading 6
1.1.1.1.1.1.1        Heading 7
1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1Heading 8
1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 Heading 9
Here is the script so far:

end tell
