Hi all,

I'm evalueting to split break some frames in my 90 pages document.

In the document there are a lot of title using numbered lists option like:

3.0 TITLE BLA BLA

3.1 subtitle bla bla

paragraph bla bla bla


3.2 subtitle bla bla

a sòdkasòkladkaòskd


if I use BreakFrame script to split frames from 3.1 to 3.2
the paragraph 3.2 subtitle bla bla renumber itself starting from the last number in the document:
8.2 subtitle bla bla


is it normal or may I wrong something?

thx

I often make 2 nearly identical numbered lists. One is set to Start at 1. The other is set to Continue from Previous Number. Other folks like to right click and choose Continue from Previous Number. I would think that you would have to BreakFrame all the way through the document before you could assess how the numbering is behaving or misbehaving.

thx Mike.

I no more use the 2 numbered lists you suggested. maybe this is the issue?

obviously, if I use SplitStory.jsx instead of BreakFrame.jsx I dont have the numbering problem.
runaround...

I can never remember which one of those *doesn't* leave you with duplicated text in overset!
