How can I have two heading styles at the same numbering level?
Hi all
I'm trying to reformat a long document that uses outline numbered styles Heading 1 Heading 5. I've got everything the way I want it, the numbering works fine & outline is great. My Heading 2 style has the 'page break before' attribute, but there are a few places where I don't really want that to happen 'cos there's not much text after the preceding Heading 1. So I thought I'd create an identical style called H2nobreak and replace the 'page break before' with '24pt space before'. The problem is that if I follow H2nobreak style with a standard Heading 2, the numbering doesn't work properly and *both* paragraphs are numbered e.g. 1.3. How can I tell Heading 2 that it should continue the numbering sequence from a preceding H2nobreak as well as from a preceding Heading 2? TVMIA Jerry |

Oh - and also, heading 3 numbering doesn't reset after H2nobreak (but
I want it to - *as well as* after Heading 2) J. On 19 Sep, 15:43, wrote: Hi all I'm trying to reformat a long document that uses outline numbered styles Heading 1 Heading 5.

I would strongly advise just removing the "Page break before" property from
the specific Heading 2 paragraphs that don't need it. -- Suzanne S.
