## Type

Lists the available Variable field types.

Akaakuu | Ibsa
--- | ---
Jijjiiramaa Qindeessi | Defines a variable and its value. You can change the value of a variable by clicking in front of the variable field, and then choosing Edit - Field. By default, all variables are created of numeric type. When you insert a Set Variable field into the document for the first time, you need to define its format in the Format area. The format can be either text or numeric, with various number formats available. Once defined, you cannot change the format unless you remove the variable from the document. By default, all variables are created of numeric format.
Jijjiiramaa Mul'isi | Inserts the current value of the variable that you click in the Select list.
Dirree DDE | Geessituu DDE, isa ati yeroo fedha keetti karraa maqaa ramadameefiitiin harroomsuu dandeessu sanaa, galmee kee keessatti saaga.
Foormulaa Saagi | Lakkoofsa dhabaataa, yk bu'aa foormulaa tokkoo saaga. When a variable is created with a numeric value, its content is interpreted as a formula, and the result is automatically converted to a number. Plain text enclosed in quotes evaluates to 0, but if you enter a mixed string like "123a456", the conversion stops at the first non-numeric character—resulting in the number 123. The formula expression follows the rules for formulas in tables, using variables defined in the document rather than table cells.
Dirree naqaa | Gegeedaramaa yk Dirree Fayyadammaa tokkoof gatii haaraa saaga. Gatiin gegeedaramaa dirree Naqaa tokko bakka dirren itti saagamee kaasee gara fulduraatti qofa gatii qabaata.

Haa tahu malee, gatiin Dirree Fayyadammaa tokko haala xurgbee(Adunyaa mara) tiin jijjiirama. The variables are displayed in the Select field. When you click the Insert button, the dialog Review Fields appears, where you can enter the new value or additional text as a remark.

## Mul'atala

Hides the field contents in the document. The field is inserted as a thin gray mark in the document. This option is only available for the "Set Variable" and "User Field" field types.

## With Heading Number

Use this option to display a heading number before a “number range” field. The heading number comes from a heading prior to the location of the field.

### Up to level

With typical use of headings in the document, the selected number will indicate how many levels of heading number (starting from level 1) to display. The selected value indicates the maximum number of levels to show. The actual number may have fewer levels. For example, if the immediately prior heading number is 2.6, and 4 is selected, then only 2.6 is displayed . If [None] is selected, no heading number is displayed.

The heading number selected for display is the first prior heading whose outline level is equal to or less than the selected outline level. For example, select “2” to use the heading number of the first prior heading with outline level 1 or outline level 2.

### Gargareessaa

Specify the character to use as a separator between the heading number and the field number.

With Heading Number, Up to level and Separator are only available for the “Number range” field type.
