Hello @Barb Binder ,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, I do think that will work for the numbering, however I would like to keep the text flowing more naturally (as well as fewer page count).
In my example (Rom 5:20) the (20) is picked up from the (Verse) Character Style, and the first use of that on the page is still from Chapter 4. It’s not a running number list – but just pulls the text that has that Character Style applied to it. The same for Chapter character style – it just pulls what it “sees” (and if it doesn’t see anything, uses what it saw last), not a running number list.
For my Chapters, the character style is only applied to the “5”.
