Howdy,

Not sure if this has a simple answer, but I could not find it in a search. I'm a little odd, and would like to start the row numbering for one of my documents at 0, rather than 1.

A related question is that often, because I'm outlining law notes out of a book where we skip sections I'd like to be able to start numbering, and after say 1 through 5 skip to 8 and then go on to 15. Is there any way to do this without having to name them individually?

I reason that I am far more likely to get a positive answer on the first question.

Hi Mark-

Unfortunately neither of these are possible currently. We do plan to address this with OO4 however.

Thanks for asking.

I'd just like to stress the need for this (just in case "votes" count). When outlining a book that has a preface, introduction, then the main chapters which start with Latin Numeral "I", I need to be able to leave the first two rows empty of numbering. Quite essential, really, to using an outliner for traditional readings and note-taking.

Thanks, looking forward to 4.0.

I was looking for the same feature. Could someone let me know if this is present in 3.6 or 4?

I know this thread hasn't been posted to in a while, but I'd like to add my voice to this as well. In particular, I'd really like to be able to start a numbered list start at 0.

I know this was answered as something for OO4, but that was promised back in 2006, and I know things can change in 4 years' time (for example, in 2006, I don't think an iPad version was under consideration).

So, my question: Is this still on the table for OO4? And, uhh, when do you think that'll be, roughly speaking?

Feature request is still on the books - I'll add a link to this thread to the item our development database so the team knows there are some requests here.

Work on OmniOutliner 4 continues, but we don't have an ETA yet - our preferred approach is to get things to folks as quickly as we can manage, but we try to avoid letting calendar dates drive the quality of the work. In our experience, lettingg the latter drive the former works out better in the long run. ;-)
