Hi Zak,

The outline level attribute of the paragraph in the page header is set to 3 - new feature in OOo 3.1. Look at the status bar information, when you have placed the cursor inside this paragraph.
To get rid of it You can do the following:
- place cursor in this paragraph and reset the formatting: Menu Format - Default Formating OR - open the format dialog of this paragraph, switch to pane "Outline and Numbering" and change the outline level to "Body Text".

I assume from Your description that you do not set it directly. Thus, it seems that there is a defect in our implementation of the outline level attribute in relation with the paragraph styles which are assigned to the outline style (Menu Tools - Outline Numbering). Unfortunately the defect is not reproducable, yet. Please be watchful and send me a note, when you can reproduce the unintented setting of the outline level attribute of a paragraph.

Best regards, Oliver.

With the attached file, I get the following behaviour:

When opening it in Writer 3.1, the table of contents includes the page header, at subsubheading level (i.e. 3)

In an earlier version of the file (overwritten, sadly) the "Kopfzeile" Style (page header) was listed as the style for a subsubheading, but I changed this back to "Überschrift 3" (heading 3). Despite changing it back, now the page header is listed along with the other level 3 headings in the table of contents. What's more, even if I copy/paste it to another place in the same document, that occurence will be listed, also.

I did check whether somehow a directory marker could have sneaked in, but there is none. copy/pasted the page heading to another point in the document, removed everything except the fragment "haltsverz", and it was still listed. I copied that fragment elsewhere, and that copy was not listed. I copied the complete copy of the page heading elsewhere and it, too was not listed. (=> Only direct copies of the page header are listed).

I opened the same file in Writer 3.0. The "Kapitelnummer" ("chapter number", I presume) dialogue again showed the "Kopfzeile" style as the one for level 3 headings, but lists it together with the real heading 3. Correcting the setting there and saving also saved the file for writer 3.1, but if had not had the old installation, I'd have been lost.

=> There must be something in the odt files that version 3.1 writes/interpretes incorrectly.


I hope the above description is clear enough. If not, I can provide screenshots.

I'm using OOo 3.1 and 3.0 under openSuse, but the behaviour of 3.0 under Win XP is the same (couldn't test 3.1 with WinXP, sorry)


 Cheers,

 Zak
