Update ordered number list (with sub number and upon changes)

While I also prefer x.x.x type of numbering, I could give it up for compliance to the Markdown specs. However, as others have mentioned, the auto-numbering should be fixed at any given level, and the numbering when changing a level of any given line should automatically adjust all the numbering as well.

As an interim step, I'd be interested in a command to renumber the current list -- ie, either the list my cursor is in at the moment, or even just any arbitrary list of lines.

At the very least, this should be re-indexing the numbered list So 1 2 ----⁠1 ----⁠2 My preference would be 1 2 ----⁠2.1 ----⁠2.2 But, I could live with the first scenario, what it's doing right now is just wrong.

I think this is the only app I've used where the numbered list doesn't update as you indent or add more points in between the list. It feels like such a "bare minimum" function for a sophisticated notes app like NotePlan. Please add it! :)

I feel the re-indexing bug has been around since at least the 3.x beta days and I'm surprised it hasn't been fixed yet. It might have been one of the bugs that initially made me decide not to pay for NP3. Any thoughts on when we might see a fix?

I think that an automatic outline from headings (like in Notion/Obsidian) would be great.

Thanks for sharing this! You mean automatically numbering with lists? Numbered lists are not detected as tasks unless you specify so in the Markdown preferences.

NotePlan uses markdown format for their files, and unfortunately ordered lists with sub-ordered lists are not supported within the markdown specification. https://www.markdownguide.org/

This would probably require numbered lists to be able to reindex themselves, which is also desirable.
