<html><body><span style="font-family:Verdana; color:#000000; font-size:10pt;"><div>Your centering problem is easily solved by having a new style called "Bullet Number 10+" that you use for enumeration above 9, with slightly different tab stops than "Bullet Number". That's a bit of a hack in modern FM autonumbering strategies; but you're already using <n=1> (rather than an introductory heading that resets with "N:< =0>") so I guess you're cool with more-manual style selection.</div><div><br></div><div>As for the bizarre enumeration sequence... I got nuthin'--never seen such a thing in 15 years. Do you have some kind of character style applied to the autonumber that could (somehow?!?) be rendering backwards? Hmmm... or maybe the first "\t" is a right-aligned tab stop and it is setup weird (like, with line height and space below = 0) and so what you're seeing is a line wrap? That would cause this "left-to-right reading number"... maybe....</div><div><br></div><div>As an experiment, I'd try my creation of "Bullet Number 10+" and see if the problem goes away...? Or MAYBE make a "Bullet Number 10" which forces "N:\t<n=10>\t" with the new, slightly-more-to-the-right tab stop position; and then use "Bullet Number 11+" to increment further? *shudder*</div><div><br></div><div>Kneejerk Response #13: Any chance of refactoring content not to run over 9 items? Like, if these are callouts to a diagram, can you start with an 'overview' set of callouts, and then cross-reference to more-specific 'sub-callouts' in subsequent diagrams? For example<span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">:</span></div><div><br></div><div>"Diagram overview"</div><div><full image></div><div>1 FOO region of the WIDGET.

The best we've managed is to produce a "10," but the "10" appears at the beginning of the list, followed by numbers 1 through 9, and then numbers that increment in 10s, as before; that is, "01," "11," "21," and so forth.</font> <br>
