Tired of right-clicking to "Restart Numbered List" every time you have a new set of numbers? Why can't InDesign handle numbered lists the way that Microsoft Word does?
In this video, I explain a work-around for this irritating issue. Essentially, we will trick InDesign into thinking our body copy is also a numbered list and to restart every time it encounters it.
Plus, this method is immune to "Clear Overrides." No reason to worry about resetting your lists every time now!
