Line Numbering comes in handy for interviews, so you could say: “See interview line 22”. However you probably won’t want all the lines of your thesis numbered, only the lines of the actual interview. Also, in case you had several interviews, they should each start with the number 1.
Here is how to go about it:
- go to menu Tools › Line Numbering and tick the box Show numbering; change the Interval from 5 to 1 lines to facilitate location; untick the box Blank lines; from now on the programme has global permission to number all lines
- Modify the paragraph style Default: under the tab Outline & Numbering untick Include this paragraph in line numbering; this ensures that for all styles based on the Default style line numbering is turned off
- in the list of paragraph styles (F11) right the paragraph style Text Body and choose option New
- name your new style Interview
- under the tab Outline & Numbering activate Include this paragraph in line numbering; from now on only lines in Interview style paragraphs will be numbered
- place the cursor in the first paragraph of the interview and double-click on the menu entry Interview to apply this style; should your interview consist of several paragraphs you can mark these beforehand and apply the style Interview to all of them in one go
In order to restart numbering at the first paragraph of the second interview right click it and choose Paragraph (not Edit Paragraph Style…) and under the tab Outline & Numbering tick Restart at this paragraph.
