[Framers] Autonumber format?

[Fred Ridder]

\sn is the "escape" code for an en-space.

Using an en-space will give you a space that is always relative to the specified autonumbering string, whereas a tab will give you an absolute alignment for the following text. This matters when you have an autonumber string that can vary in length (e.g., a one-digit number vs. 2 or 3 digits). In your case, with a fixed autonumber string (i.e., constant text only), it makes no practical difference.

Subject: [Framers] Autonumber format?

Hi All,



I have inherited a template that has been manhandled by a gazillion authors
over the years with tons of overrides, etc., and I am in the throes of
trying to clean it up and simplify it greatly. For one of the paragraph tags
in this quagmire, the autonumbering is set to the following:



Required Knowns:\sn and there is a tab stop set to a value of .65.



When I click to place this tag in the document, I do indeed see the phrase
"Required Knowns:" automatically placed, but that is the backslash sn  (\sn)
do?  Can this not be replaced by the \t building block and set the value
accordingly?



Thanks!
