chapter/section numbering bug

In the Layout inspector under the Numbering tab, it gives you the option of continuing numbering the sections or starting over at a number you select. As it should be. Only problem is, it restarts the chapter numbers at 1, not the section numbers at 1. Clearly, this is a bug that needs to be fixed ASAP.

Found the solution, although it's still confusing. If you're on a chapter title page, then the instructions you give under Section Numbers under the Numbering tab apply to the chapters, not the sections. But if you're on a section title page, it applies to the sections. A bit of re-wording would make this much clearer because right now, it looks like a bug.
