A user should be able to insert a field with the following features: * The first displayed value can be chose arbitrarily by the user when defining the field * Additional copies of the field (i.e. which you would get by copy-pasting) cover consecutive elements of the sequence You can't quite get that right now. * There is "Number Range" - where you can either have it auto-increment, or set the initial value, but for both to happen you need different field properties - and initial setter followed by non-setters. * There is "Set Variable", which you could make auto-increment, i.e. my_var = my_var + 1 - but this has basically the same problem; if you want an initial value other than 1, you need to different fields. Starting numbering in values other than 1 (or the first element of the sequence) is obviously necessary. we already offer that feature when numbering paragraphs. It should also be available directly and conveniently for fields. As for _how_ to offer this feature - that's more of a bike-shed question. My personal suggestion would be offering a range-start property (as opposed to the value property) for Number Ranges; and perhaps even support this indirectly elsewhere.
Please, can you attach a word sample file with that field.
Created attachment 189962 [details] An MS Word document exemplifying SEQ field behavior So, I can't show _exactly_ what I've asked for in MS-Word, but almost that. In the attached document, the same field with the same identifier is used multiple times. But - the first time has a different switch to set the count to its initial value. So it's not literally copying the exact same field, but it's almost the same: SEQ foo \r 123 vs SEQ foo \n .
