This isn't what Louise is looking for (sorry, Louise; I wish I could suggest something), but you can have any numbering system extend through the document and not get reset to zero when it is interrupted by intervening paragraphs. In the numbering styles definition in the style sheet, just check the box next to "Continue throughout document."

You can then manually restart the numbering at any point you would like it to restart (Format -> Lists -> Restart Numbering). If you change your mind, click Format -> Lists -> Continue Numbering from Previous. You can accomplish the same thing with the tool drawer.

Hmmmmmm.... I see it has "Bullets and numbering"....

Is that line numbering, by any chance? (Pretty please?)

Doesn't look like it - just the macro to add them (which also changes the formatting...)

You can have "Heading" numbers which increment, and though you can put non-number stuff between them you don't get multiple levels of numbering (1. Section, 1.1 Subsection, etc) as in NisusWriter :-(

There is tiered list numbering, but you can't put text in between the numbered items without resetting the numbering.

So the numbering looks pretty limited, and nothing like NisusWriter's. Sadly as this is a beta the product is probably feature-frozen.

I also tried "soft return" - its still in find/replace, I can't see how to type it, and replacing something with it using F/R just adds a normal return.

Doesn't look like a major upgrade at all. Looks like we'll have to wait for Nisus Express 3 for something a bit more meaty.

Disclaimer: I haven't spent a long time with it.
