USING INCOPY CS4 219 Typography 10 Select Restart Numbers At This Level After to renumber beginning at 1 when a paragraph at this level appears after a paragraph at a higher level; deselect this option to number paragraphs at this level consecutively throughout the list without regard for where the paragraphs appear in the list hierarchy. To restart numbers after a specific level or range of levels, type the level number or range (such as 2-4) in the Restart Numbers At This Level After field. 11 In the Bullet or Number Position area, choose Indent or Tab Position options to indent list items at this level farther than list items at higher levels. Indenting helps subordinate items in lists stand out. 12 Click OK. In some cases, such as with numbered steps, you may want to restart numbering within the same story. To avoid restarting the numbered list manually, create a separate style that's identical to the Level 1 style with one exception. For Mode, chose Start At, and then specify 1. Name this style something like "Level 1 Restart." Create running captions for figures and tables Running captions number figures, tables, and other items consecutively in a document. For example, the first figure caption starts with the words "Figure 1," the second with "Figure 2," and so on. To make sure that figures, tables, or similar items are numbered consecutively, define a list for the item, and then create a paragraph style that includes the list definition. You can also add descriptive words such as "Figure" or "Table" to the numbering scheme of the paragraph style. List items are numbered in the order in which they are added to the page. To reorder the items, cut and paste the items one by one in the order in which you want them to be listed. 1 Create a new paragraph style and, in the Bullets And Numbering section of the Paragraph Style Options dialog box, choose Numbers from the List Type menu. 2 Choose a defined list from the List menu (or choose New List to define a list). 3 Under Numbering Style, select the type of numbering you want to use from the Format menu. For example, select the A, B, C, D... option to create a list for "Figure A," "Figure B," and so on. 4 In the Number box, enter a descriptive word and any spacing or punctuation (as needed) along with the numbering metacharacters. For example, to create a "Figure A" effect, enter the word "Figure" and a space before the numbering metacharacters (such as Figure ^#.^t). This adds the word "Figure" followed by a sequential number (^#), a period, and a tab (^t). Note: To include chapter numbers in running captions, choose Insert Number Placeholder > Chapter Number from the Number list, or enter ^H where you want the chapter number to appear in the number scheme. 5 Finish creating the style and click OK. After you create the style, apply it to text figure captions or table titles. You can use the Table Of Contents feature to generate a list of tables or figures.
