HelpNumbering Element

Author-it XML Format

Description

Allows you to choose the type of numbering applied to the paragraph in Windows Help. The following types are allowed:

  • None: no numbering is applied, and will restart any numbered paragraphs preceding it.
  • Numbered: sequential numbering is applied. This will also restart any numbered paragraphs preceding it with a lower Outline Level.
  • Bulleted: places a character before the paragraph. This will also restart any numbered paragraphs preceding it with a lower Outline Level.
  • Skip numbering: no numbering is applied, and any numbered paragraphs will continue numbering in following paragraphs. This allows you to have multiple paragraphs for a single numbered point.

The HelpNumbering element corresponds to the radio-button options, on the "Bullets and Numbering" sub-tab, on the Windows Help tab, of the Style object.
