Word 2007 Outline-Numbered Heading Styles
Hello - I was expert at creating outline-numbered heading styles in Word 2003
and earlier. I still haven't figured out the best way to do this in Word 2007. In Word 2007, when I access the Modify Style dialog box for Heading 1 style (for example), click the Format button, then click the Numbering link, this takes me to a Numbering and Bullets dialog box that does not include outline numbering. So if I add numbering to my Heading 1 style, it will not be linked to numbering I add for other heading levels. Not good. I'm aware of the Multilevel List button on the Ribbon's Home tab, Paragraph group. Is the best way now to add outline numbering to heading styles to (1) apply Heading 1 style to a paragraph, (2) pick a multilevel list and apply the list formatting as direct formatting on top of the Heading 1 paragraph, then (3) update the Heading 1 style to match the selection? If that's the way to do it, what's the point of the Numbering link in the Modify Styles dialog box? And good luck on further modifications to the outline-numbered heading style €“ sometimes you have to modify from the Modify Style dialog, sometimes from multilevel list dialog, and sometimes neither work. (I don't usually complain about Microsoft, because what's the point, but I have to say it is frustrating that they changed something that previously worked well and intuitively.) |
