Cutomized numbering

I need to number items in a customized way

eg:
2.
3.
5.

eg:

2.
4.
8.

etc

Can I do this?

Thanks!

Type the numbers manually.

Hi,

You can use SEQ fields for the second and third numbers to do this. However,
since the first number in each series is 2, you can simply type 2 for it.

The following creates your series or numbers.

2.
{={ SEQ second } + 2}.
{={ SEQ third }*3 + 2}.

2.
{={ SEQ second } + 2}.
{={ SEQ third }*3 + 2}.

Don't type the curly brackets in these field codes. Instead select the text
enclosed in each pair and press Ctrl+F9. After you create one set, select it,
press F9 and then press Alt+F9. Then you can copy the three lines to create
additional sets. After you paste, select the two lines with field codes and
press F9 to update the numbers.
