All,
I have a template that I created in FM7.2 In this template, I have a paragraph tag called "StepNumberBegin" that has the following autonumber format: S:<n=1>.\t and a paragraph tag called StepNumberContinued that has the following autonumber format: S:<n+>.\t I also have the following x-ref formats: · Step which is formatted as <Link>Step <$paranumonly><Default ¶ Font> · Step. which is formatted as <Link>Step <$paranumonly>.<Default ¶ Font> Note that the ONLY difference between these two is the period. When I used these formats in FM7.2, and set up an x-ref to a Step paragraph, as expected, the automatic period after the numbering was either not included or included depending on the x-ref format that I selected and I have confirmed this by repeatedly testing in FM 7.2 - i.e., I get Step 1 Step 2 and so on if I use the Step x-ref format. I get Step 1. Step 2. and so on if I use the Step. x-ref format. In FM9 (all patched and updated), I decided to clean up the template and use less tags and I now have a single tag called StepNumber that has the autonumber format set to the following: N:< ><n+>.\t < =0> (This allows the numbering to be automatically reset to "1" after a heading and auto-increment correctly and the headings are set with the correct autonumber formats to allow for this.) However, when I use this these formats in FM9.0, and set up an x-ref to a StepNumber paragraph, no matter which x-ref format that I use - I get the period after the number if I use the Step x-ref format and I get a double period if I use the Step. format - i.e., I get Step 1. if I use the Step x-ref format. I get Step 1.. if I use the Step. x-ref format. What am I missing here? The only difference is that I am having the numbering be reset after a heading, but the format still is basically one that has a period in it after the counter, just like in FM7.2 and I am specifying whether or not to include the period after the counter.
