Question

Big problem with numbered lists

Hi,

I´m using the techsuite for singlesourcing from FM to RH by reference. Now I have a few questions:

(1) The font of the numbers in my numbered lists is different and too big. I activated the option "convert automatic numbered list in HTML-list" and mapped the fm-style to an rh-style with a numbered list.
Here´s the code:
<ol start=1><li style="list-style: decimal;" type=1 class=p-List3><p class=List3>xxtextxxxx.</p></li>

Well, it is double-formated - but if I don´t activate the option mentioned above - no "real" lists are generated, only some kind of "textnumbered"-lists without tab.

Now, I already figured out, that I have to set the correct size in the OL, UL tags in the css manually. I´ve done this in the fmstyle.css, but it had no effect. The class p-List3 is not part of the chapter-css, so maybe here´s the problem.
So I tried to correct it in the css which are generated for each chapter, but unfortunately, the correction is deleted after the forced update. So what to do?

(2) What for are the "Other"-styles in the styles-dialog?


(3) The zero-point of the indents seems to start somewhere different for nearly every abstract ;-(

(4) Text-alignment in tables: In FM celltext is top-aligned - but in RH it appears centered.


Thanks for your help

thank you, but I already read the whole day all the most important blogs like:

otherwise I wouldn´t have the slightest chance to get that far ;-) so thank you for this great blog (I wish half of this in would be in the online help)
but the point is, see above, some important questions are still troubling me ... I wonder, doesn´t anybody use numbered lists in their documents? cmon!
