Using Numbering Formats

You can change number formats at a chapter level.

You can use Innovator to set the number format in the documentation at the chapter level. The following numbering formats are supported:

Unnumbered
Arabic starting with 1
Roman large
Roman small
Uppercase
Lowercase
Arabic starting with 0

The super chapter's number format is the operative chapter. It is not possible for a chapter in the documentation to have subchapters which are numbered in different ways. A chapter's number format affects all its sub chapters.

Only if the number format is set to Unnumbered does this property have precedence and the chapter and its subchapters are unnumbered.

In model element enumeration chapters, the number format set for Paragraph Format affects the model elements and the format set in the Properties tab affects the model element's sub chapters.

If a chapter is unnumbered, its subchapters are also automatically unnumbered.

Restriction:

The numbering is taken from the paragraph format used for documentation in MS Word format, i.e. you can only differentiate between numbered and unnumbered.
