Susan:
Thanks. There are still a lot of little nuances regarding 12.4 that I am
learning about. Regarding the list styles, it just states just that ... “list”.
So I am a little confused on if it is a simple list, nested list, etc. Thanks
again for the reply. Jerry

Jerry,
There is no specific function implied by the numbered styles other than to
indicate the format that style produces. For example, the 1-3 style means the
paragraph begins in cell 1 and the runover is in cell 3. The numbered styles
are for those users who prefer to format by indent/runover only. Numbered
styles are also helpful in situations where other named styles don’t quite
match what the producer wants.
The various nested list styles (exercise, list, contents, glossary, index,
poetry) automatically change the runover of the full list based on the number
of levels used. How this functions is dependent on the version of DBT. These
different types of nested lists have the same format for indent/runover, but
there are subtle differences (lists incorporate blank lines, contents protect
the right margin for page numbers, poetry protects poetic lines).
You can use the numbered styles, but it is up to you to insert appropriate
blank lines, manage end of braille page issues, and change styles to
accommodate the different levels in a nested list.

Good morning all.
In the styles headings, the first several in which to choose from are listed as
1-2, 1-3, etc. Are these the styles for nested lists, with their levels of
headings and subheadings? Thanks.
Jerry
