[en] Add Multi-Level Numbering

[en] By using the two attributes inheritnum="inherit" and numeration="arabic" on your sublists, you enable multi-level numbering (like 1.1 and 1.1.1) for your PDF output.

Anmerkung

[en] Three important things:

  • [en] This feature only works for ordered lists, not procedures. To learn the difference, see Listen und Verfahren.

  • [en] The attributes are only added to the sublists, not the main list.

  • [en] You need to preview the topic as PDF to see the correct numbering.

[en] Below, we add two sublists and enable the multi-level numbering for them:

  1. [en] Position the cursor inside the top-level ordered list to add a sublist.

  2. Drücken Sie Alt + Enter ⏎ (Windows) oder Command ⌘ + Enter ⏎ (Mac), um den Kontextmenü „Elemente“ anzuzeigen.

    Element context menu shows a search field and a list of elements that are valid at the current position.

  3. [en] Select orderedlist from the menu to add a sublist.

  4. Wählen Sie die geordnete Liste im Menü „Elementstruktur“ aus.

  5. [en] Select Go to element.

  6. [en] Add these attributes in the Panel „Elementattribute“:

    • [en] inheritnum and set the value to inherit

    • [en] numeration and set the value to arabic

    [en] This will create a second level (1.1) in the ordered list.
