I just figured out one neat trick. If you don't want the next line of your text to be numbered in your document, hit "Control-Enter" instead of "Enter" when you create a new line. It will give you a blank line to work with.
I fixed my own problem. Once created the auto number stuff keeps worked even thought the option was switched off. I deleted the auto placed numbers and they don't regenerate.
