Document Classes ⇒ Bring "numberpars" paragraph numbers closer to text …

[Sekantombi]

Colleagues,

I'm thinking about using numberpars for a long doc, and have trialled it with some satisfaction.

This may seem simple but --- how to bring the paragraph numbers in closer to the (left-hand) edge of body text?

I don't want para numbers to be on left of headings. I've given headings negative indents, but would have to go to ridiculous lengths to get standard numberpars position inboard from them …

Hi Sekantombi,

what package do you use for numberpars? I know a numberpar.sty that uses \qquad that may be redefined. But tell us where we could find the package you are using, because I don't see it on CTAN.

Sorry, I am using numberpar.sty --- I slipped and quoted the name of the command rather than the package.

What do I do to \qquad?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Do you have a link to the sourcecode of that package?
Try if this has an effect:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand*\qquad{\hskip1.5em\relax}

Originally it's 2em.

Stefan

Thanks, I'll try that.
