Hi John,

I see, this relates to the Writer Guide. It was introduced by me - but I do not feel very guilty :), because it looks like an LO bug.

I did two things with the guide files. First, I manually replaced direct formatting by an appropriate style. Then, I removed the unnecessary tagging by the cleanup script.

The problem was introduced in the first step. To distinguish the text with style from the directly formatted text, I first created a template with styles with colored background. Then, for each file, I loaded the template. However, I probably did not check the "Numbering" button in the Load Dialog. Is I have found out today, in this case LO breaks the list-like paragraph styles. I would expect that they were not changed at all.
Would I check the "Numbering" button, everything would be OK.

There does not seem to be a simple way to correct the corrupt files (one has to load the template "correctly" and then check and correct each list in each file). So, I will clean the WG files from scratch again. It will take me a few days. I will download the WG files from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#Getting_Started_with_LibreOffice again, is that OK?

Thank you for pointing to the problem. If you think that this is really a bug and not feature, I will submit it to bugzilla

Milos

Hi Milos
The problems I came across, and I went no further than checking these, lie with the numbering and the list styles. For example, if you care to look at, say Chapter 9 picked at random, and select the OOoNum 123 Start style, you will see that on the 'Outline and Numbering' tab, 'Numbering' has been set incorrectly to 'None'. On the 'Indents & Spacing' tab, you will see the 'Before text:' and 'First line:' values have been incorrectly set to zero. This applies to the whole family of OOoNum styles and to the OOoList family of styles too. As I said, I have checked no other styles as I then adopted my copy/paste routine to get on with the work. I hope you find this information useful and good luck with what you're doing.
Regards

Dear John,

please, let me know where does the problem reside. I want to look at it and eventually correct the script, if it is an error. It should not touch any styles except for removing OOODefault.

With respect to the Writer guides, Milos has done some work and 'cleaned' them using some software routines. Unfortunately there appears to be some random changes made to some of the custom styles we use (not the coloured backgrounds to styles that are in the 'cleaned' files, but others).
