Multiple numbered lists in one document?
 
Hello.

I'm very new (as in today) to Omnioutliner.

It looks great and is pretty user friendly...but I'm basically looking for it to painlessly and more elegantly do everything that I can make happen in a traditional word processor.

SO: is there a way to create two or more numbered lists in one document. So that I have one list that is I. II. III. and then start a new list in that document that restarts at I.?

It seems so simple! If not -- Omni, why not? That would make the program so much more flexible.

I hope I'm missing something. What is it.

Thanks in advance.

Jake

PS. I'm just using the basic version as 14-day trial, if that makes a difference!

Omni trials are fully-functioning versions of the software, no concern there.

As for the multiple lists, is this an example of what you want?

I opened the Utilities drawer, clicked on "All Level 2 rows", brought up the Row Inspector, Numbering tab, and set the numbering to Roman. You can even have different lists numbered in a different fashion if you override the styling by selecting the elements of the list you want to change, then doing the same process in the inspector.
