Last evening I came up against a problem with section numberin changes that I could not resolve. It occurred in two imported text documents, one I declared an article the other a report. Both are software manuals (one an admin guide the other a user guide) I was sent via e-mail. The version of LyX is 1.1.6fix3.
When I imported the first document I tried both the report and article classes to see which would print in a format I preferred. When I declared the first section as a "section" it was numbered '1', and sub-sections were '1.1' and '1.2' then '2' and so on. I changed the document type from article to report and the numbers changed to begin with '0' rather than '1'. I couldn't find where to change them back again. Putting that aside for a while, I imported the second manual changing the document class to 'report'. As soon as I specified the first heading as a "section", it was numbered '0'. I'm sure this is a simple user error, but I didn't see in the on-line references how to change it back again. I'd appreciate a pointer to the solution. Thanks, Rich Dr. Richard B.
