You can control precisely how numbering is applied to the topics in your map by selecting how many levels of topics are numbered (up to 5), and the style of numbering used.
The Numbering scheme lets you choose a pre-set numbering scheme. You can use the scheme as is, or go on to customize it to your needs.
The Depth selector controls how many levels will be numbered (up to 5).
Use the Repeat options if you wish to continue to number levels deeper than the Depth specified.
Restart numbering scheme Repeat the entire number scheme over and over: eg 1.a.i.1.a.i.1.a.i...
Repeat last style Repeat the last number scheme style only: eg 1.a. i. i. i. i. i...
Repeat last two styles Repeat the last two number scheme styles only: eg I. 1. a. i. a. i. a. i. a. i
No number repeat No numbering will appear after the level specified by the Depth field.
The Customize area shows a button for each level's numbering type and a button for each separator between the levels. Click on these buttons to change the number or separator type used. The number of buttons shown depends on the Depth setting.
To add a text label in front of the numbering at any levels enter the text in the Add label field for that level.
The numbers and labels will use the topic font, and will be separated from the topic text by a space.
The Remove numbering button is available if you have selected the originating topic for the numbering scheme or if you have the central topic selected (all numbers will be removed)
