Text Formatting ⇒ Alter Enumerate Style from "1." to "i." or "(i)"

[iHubble]

Hi,

I'm new with LaTeX. I'm using LyX, and I would like to change the enumeration style. At the moment, the enumeration style is :

1. ABC
2. DEF
3. GHI
...

And I would like it to be :

i. ABC
ii. DEF
iii. GHI
...

Is there an easy way to fix it ?
Thanks!

Joey

Put

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\theenumi}{\roman{enumi}}

in the preamble.

Or you could use

Code: Select all

\begin{enumerate[(i.)]

to change for that list only

Or you could use

Code: Select all

\begin{enumerate[(i.)]

to change for that list only

Since the default enumerate environment does not accept any optional arguments, this won't work.

Sorry localghost you are very right, i've been using it so long I forgot to add the proviso:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{enumerate}

then you have the option of setting the enumeration style quite easily for individual lists.

sorry again

This package is superseded by the enumitem package with more capabilities but different syntax.
