I am trying really hard to understand how to produce interrupted multi-level lists in LyX/LaTeX, but I can't seem to find a way to make the wiki suggestions work. I am preparing lecture notes for a philosophy class and I need to write down the various steps of various arguments, with main premises, sub-premises, provisional conclusions, etc. Every once in a while I need to insert text between the steps to make a more general point before resuming the argument. For clarity, I need to have the steps labeled with decimal numbering (i.e.. 1. 1.1, 1.2, etc.)
Here is what I tried: 1. using the paralist package a. decimal numbering is offered as one of the package options, so no problems there b. Could not find a way to interrupt/resume a list. I studied the package documentation, but could not find a way. That does not necessarily mean it's impossible, of course... 2. Using the mdwlist package a. I redefine the enumerate counters and labels to produce decimal numbering---no problems there b. Although the \interrupt \resume commands work from a level 1 item to standard text, I could not find a way to make it work from a deeper level item. That is, I can replicate the example on the wiki:: 1. First first level item 2. second first level item Standard text 3. third first level item But I *cannot* extend it to do this: 1. First first level item 1.1. First second level item Standard text 1.2 Second second level item When I try to adapt the wiki example strategy to my needs I get LaTex errors. I am attaching a short sample file below. Any help appreciated Cheers, Stefano -- ______________________________________________________________ Stefano Franchi Department of Philosophy Ph: (979) 862-2211 Texas A&M University Fax: (979) 845-0458 305B Bolton Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] College Station, TX 77843-4237
