| | switches | |
| | \c | Repeats the closest preceding sequence number
This is useful for inserting chapter numbers in headers or footers. |
| | \h | Hides the field result
Use it to refer to a SEQ field in a cross-references without printing the number
For example, you might want to refer to a numbered chapter but not print the chapter number
The \h switch doesn't hide the field result if a Format (\*) switch is also present. |
| | \n | Inserts the next sequence number for the specified items
This is the default. |
| | \r n | Resets the sequence number to the specified number n
For example, { SEQ figure \r 3 } starts figure numbering at 3. |
| | \s | Resets the sequence number at the heading level following the "s"
For example, { SEQ figure \s 2 } starts numbering at the Heading 2 style. |
| | REMARKS |
| The easiest way to insert SEQ fields to number tables, figures, and other items in a document is to use the Caption command (Insert menu, Reference submenu). | | The LISTNUM field also produces automatic numbering and may be a better alternative if you are creating a complex numbered list. | | A SEQ field in a header, footer, annotation, or footnote doesn't affect the sequence numbering that results from SEQ fields in the document text. | | If you didn't use styles to format document headings, you can number chapter headings by inserting a SEQ field at the beginning of each chapter: |
