Re: Starting enumerate from any number

2004-05-16 Thread Robert Neumann

  I would like to start an enumeratet list with 3. and I cannot do that.

 as ERT, add

 \setcounter{enumi}{0}

This works fine if I want to have something like
1. first item
2. second item
 \setcounter{enumi}{5}
6. sixth item
My problem is, to change the value of the FIRST item.
(If I instert the ERT in the line before, nothing happens)
Thanks
Robert

So set the label of the 1st item manualy.  right after the number, add in ERT
 [5]\setcounter{enumi}{5}
and continue as usual, meaning

1.ERT[5]\setcounter{enumi}{5}ERT abc
2. def

will print out
5. abc
2.def
