Suggestions and Requests / 5.0 RTF templates
« on: May 31, 2005, 01:48:51 pm »
Would like to see the following in upcoming releases of RTF templates:
- Apply multiple styles to notes such as {Pkg.notes}, not just a single style that applies to all text in the Package notes field.
- Apply different styles to each instance of a {Pkg.Note}. For example, would like to format notes for some packages as a bullet list, and notes for other packages as a number list.
- Create numbered heading style: for example Heading1 = 1.0, Heading2 =1.1, Heading3, = 1.1.1, etc
- Create numbered figure and table captions. This is supported in the legacy output, but the numbering is lost in the nmew templates.
- The RTF template supports a smaller set of formatting options than supported in Word. It would be nice if you could keep expanding support to match Word, although this is a very big task.
Sorry if the 5.0 release currently does all these things, but I could not find a way.
