Sep 6, 2024 — How to Add Sequential Numbering Elements to a table row Using a custom numbering system on tables It is always a great idea to try out your own numbering style on a table. The numbers will usually look good if they are not too much different from ones written in the standard order. As long as the formatting is the same, they will look more professional. However, if the ordering of the columns is different from what is usual and the formatting is in a way that the numbers seem to cascade downwards, or you prefer them to appear together as a series of horizontal numbers, then you might want to consider using an advanced numbering style like Sequence. Using the “Set Sequence Numbering Style” button is extremely straightforward and simple. When you select the button, all formatting associated with the custom numbering system will be changed. You will be given two menu options: If the custom numbering style does not appear in your list of options, you may not have the appropriate columns in your table created in standard format. You may have to change the column order or delete some columns from your table and then make sure to add the custom numbering style back to that modified table. In the following, we will show you how to use the “Set Sequence Numbering Style” button using the “Standard” formatting. You also get to see all the formatting options for that custom numbering type in the “Advanced” section. When you want to change the formatting of a particular custom numbering type, click “Set Sequence Numbering Style” button. When you choose the “Custom Numbering System” custom numbering type, you are then asked to confirm and apply the changes that are made to that custom numbering system. If you do not want to modify the formatting, or you wish to change your custom numbering scheme, you can go back to the Custom Numbering Style section (in “Set Sequence Numbering Style”). Example: The second section, “Custom Numbering System,” allows you to edit the formatting that your custom numbering scheme will use. In the “Base Number Formatting” section, you are asked to select the desired base sequence numbering style, and then in the “Numbering Table Format and Format Options” section, specify the format that you want.
