Hi @SquareBottle,
I wonder if my solution below will help you… almost 1 year since you asked the question! It was bugging me for the past few weeks, so I am sure this solution might help others, too.
Problem:
- ordered lists in edit mode become frustrating out of order when swapping lines up and down when outlining a document
solution
- map a hotkey for the function unordered and ordered lists - see @nickmilo’s best practice suggestions - Alt 1 to toggle unordered/ordered lists
- select text of the entire list
- toggle to unordered list, and back again to ordered list - all items are now numbered
1.
- move cursor to the beginning of the second item, press delete a few times to delete the number and paragraph, and now press return/make a new line - the entire list will be ordered 1. 2. 3…
best,
T
