line break after number in a heading
How can I accomplish the following using outline numbering (styles and
formatting): I want to have a heading with the number "Schedule 1 - This is the heading title". I know how what to do to accomplish this. However, I want to put a line break after Schedule 1 and take out the hyphen so that I end up with a situation like this: Schedule 1 This is the heading title where the two lines are of the same heading and are centered. I do it right now by manually entering a break and taking out the number for the second line, but doing it that way messes up the TOC because it becomes two different headings. Is there a way to do this automatically? Please help. Thanks. |

It you're actually using a line break (rather than a paragraph break), you
shouldn't be getting a number on the second line. Set up your paragraph numbering so that "Schedule" is part of the numbering. Select "Nothing" for "Follow number with." Then insert a line break (Shift+Enter) following the number and type your title. In the TOC, you'll get "Schedule 1" followed by a space (which replaces the line break), followed by your title.

line break after number in a heading
Hi Suzanne
Thanks for your response. It did work. I have another question relating to number. I have a situation like this where I have heading looking like "Article II" using the roman numeral style numbering. I want heading 2 to have the numbering 2.1, 2.2, etc. Currently, if I choose roman numbering for heading 1, it affects puts roman numbering for heading 2 like II.1, II.2, II.3. Is there a way to have a different style of numbering for heading 1 and heading 2. Your help would be greatly appreciated. ltsolis. "Suzanne S.

line break after number in a heading
Indeed there is. It's extremely unobvious, and I would never have discovered
it on my own because I almost never use outline numbering, but here's the trick (with thanks to whoever showed it to me): 1. Set I, II, III,... number style for Level 1. 2. For Level 2 and below, check the box for "Legal style numbering." -- Suzanne S.
