Hi :) Sorry about this but we have someone that is having troubles with numbering images and then referring to those images in the text of a Writer file
How do you folks do it in the guides? Is there any flexibility in the style of numbering used? The thread in the Users List is here http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Customizing-Number-Format-of-each-level-in-quot-Writer-gt-Tools-gt-Outline-Numbering-quot-td4067168.html as you can see we lost about half a day because i misunderstood the question. The chap is working on his thesis for university and has fairly strict rules to follow about outline numbering and referencing Regards from Tom :) ----- Forwarded Message ----- >From: Sina Momken <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Cc: [email protected]; [email protected] >Sent: Thursday, 25 July 2013, 13:48 >Subject: [libreoffice-users] Re: Customizing Number Format of each level in >"Writer->Tools->Outline Numbering" > > >Ok Tom, >It's the partially translated template, I was speaking about. >http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n4067241/iust_translated_english_template_for_thesis_final_%28nazanin%29_writable.doc > >Because of lack of time I only translated Chapter 1 and Chpater 2.
