Numbered order wrong after numbered Notes

Hi,

Can someone explain why this is happening - after I create a Note with numbers under a numbered step (see image below), the next numbered step follows the last number in the Note section. Instead of being Step number 2, its going to Step number 4, following the numbers in the Notes and not the Numbered1+.

Help!

Correct answer jaggedpeak

So would I have to change all the Numbered items to R:xxx

Correct?

All the ones that should be following the same numbering pattern, yes.

I'm guessing that Numbered2 is an indent from Numbered 1 (e.g. Numbered1 would be 1, 2, etc, and Numbered 2 would be a, b etc.)

Not sure how the other Numbered formats are used, so they might be the same series, or different (as is the case for the 'Note' formats).

Can you post the Autonumber Format you're using for both paragraph styles? (4th tab of the Paragraph Designer)

For your numbered lists, you should put 'series labels' in the autonumber format.

Since you're managing two discrete types of numbered lists, I believe you would need different series labels.

No idea which Frame version you're using, but the details haven't changed (afaik) from: Adobe FrameMaker 9 * Lists and autonumbering

In your case, you could make the formats (for example):

R:<n+>.\t

and

S:<n+>.\t
