Thank you, Bernard! Your snippet works perfectly, I just replaced prefixconnector with '.' \definestructureprefixset[figureprefix][section-3] \definestructureseparatorset [septest][--,--,--,---][?] \setupstructurecountering[way=bysection, prefixset=figureprefix, prefixseparatorset=septest, prefixconnector=.] For third question, I already found the answer in the manual: \setupheadnumber[section][1] %The next section will have number 2 Concerning my first question "how to setup itemization so that the first line were indented too?" -- I disappointed very much because nobody can help me with it. I understand that it may outside of area of interest at the moment, but itemized list looks ugly, and my work cannot be done without fixing it. Regards, Vyatcheslav
