v3.4 262 (iMac, Snow Leopard)
Is it possible to auto-number each paragraphs under a heading? For example
1.0 Heading
1.1 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
1.2 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
1.3 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and if so then please let me how would I go about it?
In anticipation, thank you for your help.
(I could number each para manually but that's a fiddle if I want to re-order them)

Re: Paragraph numbering
One option is to use an Auto-Title as the first entry of a paragraph. Set its display to only include the number (but you could use the Title for quick reference in the Outline pane or for cross-references), and this ought to give you the outcome you're looking for. It would be a bit cumbersome because you'd have to remember to do this for each individual paragraph, but I'm uncertain as to an automated way to do this.

Re: Paragraph numbering
I've already tried that, thanks. As you say, it's a bit cumbersome. I've also experimented with customising Level 2, etc but that's not ideal either.
Since it looks like I'd need to remember to auto-title the start of each paragraph, unless there is a way to do what I'm after, I may as well stick to manual numbering.
