It is some 25 degrees below normal today and windy, so instead of working outside around my place I did a bit of work on revising my template--which is not yet formatted the way I want it. [What a crappy last three months: cold with more snow and lots more rain than usual...] There is still some OOo formatting in the exposition that needs extracting. But a critical mass of my template is done.

The OOoMenuPath was simply replaced by Strong--a bolded character style. Stuff like that... Likewise, other styles were renamed or replaced (usually) by factory defaults. Using typical MS Word style names as much as possible (except for Normal) makes Word->LO migration easier.

When the weather is lousy, I upload material about my projects and their files and other stuff onto my TE forum (or online in my websites for storage), so that I know where to conveniently locate them instead of checking my computers. Much of whatever I do on those projects gets updated every so often. So, anybody can inspect whatever is there.

That's one of the things that will be in the LOv4 template: much
simplified list styles.

Perhaps you'd share with us the styles you've defined?

I already adapted a different template for myself a while ago, which was
based upon the older 3.4 template. So far, only two list styles--Numbering 1
and List 1--were employed to produce 3-level nested ordered and unordered
lists, using the factory-predefined List and Numbering series of paragraph
styles. IOW, all those dozens of alphabet-soup OOo custom style names were
replaced by just a small number of factory defaults.

IIRC, there are a lot of bizarre things in that template, which I'm
not concerned about because the template itself is going to be
replaced soon anyway with one that is very different in terms of style
names and usage, amongst other things.

In the 3.4 chapter template--in a part that I didn't work on, BTW.

The sentence was rewritten, though, employing different style names--as all
the OOo prefixes were deleted (renamed, except for the factory predefined
names) and spaces were entered between words in some names.

I have no idea what that is about. Where did you find this sentence?

Was a One Column [sic] page style intended to be used with the LO chapter
template? See the following (rewritten) sentence. The template contained
no
such animal--and its exposition was silent about it, AFAIK.

/Page Style/. Continues until manually changed to /First Page/ or /One
Column/.
