@paivis Something for you to look at next?

Requirement 4.7:98 is about numbering of ordered lists, and more specifically nested lists, where the numbering can be complex (things like 1.a, 1.b, 2.a, etc.)

4.7:102 is about inserting certain variables at certain positions in the output. We came up with a list of variables that should be available, but maybe you can find more. This is the list:

• the current braille page number (related to 4.7:97)
• the current print page number (related to Tests for indication of original pagination #36)
• the range of print pages contained in the current braille page (related to Tests for indication of original pagination #36)
• the current volume number (related to 4.7:97)
• the total number of volumes (related to 4.7:97)
• the total number of braille pages or sheets contained in the current volume or book
• the current chapter title
• the current chapter number
• the date

4.7:99 and 4.7:101 are about resetting braille page numbering (e.g. start at 1 again at the beginning of a new volume).

4.7:100 is about (re-)numbering of notes.

4.7:103 and 4.7:104 should already be covered by #35.

Another question regarding the footer: With our current formatter (SBSForm) we have the option to display in the footer the headings of two adjacent sections, i.e.

• first heading: #A
• next heading: #B
• footer content on the page of the section break: #A-#B

Does 4.5:82 cover this feature or is there another corresponding requirement for that? Thanks.

Hi Mischa,

Good use case! This falls under 4.7:102, although that requirement doesn't explicitly mention ranges of chapter numbers.

Hi Bert,

Here comes my example of ranges of chapter numbers in the footer (4.7:102). I used letters instead of numbers, but I guess it doesn't matter.

Regards,
Mischa

No, doesn't matter. Thanks, added it.
