RE: Keeping at least 3 bullet items contiguous

["Val Swisher" <vals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Fred;

I think you'll need to set up a couple of paragraph tags (either two or
three).

For example:

Bullet1 which automatically goes next to 
Bullet2 which automatically goes next to
Bullet3 which goes to Bullet3, Bullet3 and so on.

Bullet 1 "Keeps with" Bullet 2.
Bullet 2 "Keeps with" Bullet 3.
Bullet 3 does not "keep with" anything.

There might very well be a more elegant way to do this, but this is the
first things that comes to mind.

Let me know if I need to clarify this more.

Best,

Val

Subject: Keeping at least 3 bullet items contiguous

I have a paragraph format for bulleted "paragraphs".  They are actually
short items in a sometimes lengthy list.  I don't want less than 3 items
appearing contiguously because it can be confusing.  Is there a way to
enforce this?  Setting the Keep-with-Next/Previous-Pgf will cause the entire
list to be a contiguous set of paragraphs, which would cause too much white
space if it can't fit onto the rest of the page.  Setting Widow/Orphan-Lines
won't keep separate paragraphs together.  It seems like I have to customize
each item's paragraph format, and if the position of the list changes, I
have to redo that.  If there is a way to avoid this, I'll use that.

Fred
