There is a workaround which gives the "full" result. It's described in my book (info at my website - URL is in the signature), but it's really too complicated to describe with words only (in the book there's a tutorial file and a lot of pictures...). Johannes<< Thanks guys for replying, I found this 'half' workaround myself but when fiddleing around some more I found a 3 quarter workaround. I did the same as described above and then I unchecked "hide numbers" and entered the text "3" above the bracket. It's good enough for now. Thanks again, Jack.
