outline/heading conflict anonymised example
Applying the standard heading styles (Heading 1, Heading 2 etc.) to outlines
often corrupts the numbering. This bug has been around for many years. It can
occur in a number of ways:
1. The numbering of the heading may be lost, requiring it to be restored using
the 'continue previous numbering' command.
2. The numbering of the heading may be corrupted to 1, again requiring the
restoration of the correct numbering using 'continue previous numbering'.
3. However restoring in this way may result in the loss of the heading style.
4. Sometimes restoring using 'continue previous numbering' is not possible, so
the numbering remains stuck on the erroneous value of 1.
In all cases of corruption, the outline numbering following the paragraph
affected is reduced by one as a result - as if the paragraph affected does not
exist.
This bug appears to be linked to Issue 124772 - Outline Numbering: Position
settings corrupted. But it can occur independently.
REPLICATION
1. Open csc 0.6 z.odt. (This is the same test document supplied to demonstrate
Issue 124772).
2. Go to paragraph 3. Click in heading. Apply style 'Heading 1': Numbering
corrupts to 2, and subsequent numbering corrupts from 3.1 to 2.19.
3. Click Continue previous numbering' and correct values are restored.
4. Go to paragraph 3.9. Apply style 'Heading 2'. Outline numbering is turned
off. Following sub-paragraph numbering corrupts from 3.9.1 to 3.8.1.
5. Turn on outline. Old para 3.9 is now numbered 2.1. Following paragraph
remains 3.8.1.
6. Click 'Continue previous numbering' and correct values are restored.
7. Go to para 3.10.1. Apply Heading 3. Numbering corrupts to 2.1.1, that of
following para to 3.10.1.
8. Hit 'continue previous numbering'. The correct numbering is restored for
both AND THE BUG REPORTED 124772 IS RELEASED - the position settings are
restored as set in the Bullets and Numbering/Position dialogue. However this is
now inconsistent with the rest of document, in which the layout remains
corrupt.
INDEPENDENT REPLICATION 1
1. The attachment 'raw outline sample 1.0' has been produced to save the tedium
of typing from scratch. If that is acceptable, open it.
2. Apply Headings 1 to 10 following the methodology set out above.
3. Observe the results. Corruption will occur as above, and be rectified by
hitting 'Continue previous numbering'.
INDEPENDENT REPLICATION 2
1. If the sample above is not acceptable, open a new doc from template 4.ott.
2. Turn on outline numbering and select 1.1.1.1.1.
3. Construct your own outline document from scratch employing levels 1 to 10.
4. Apply Headings 1 to 10 following the methodology set out above.
5. Observe the results.
INDEPENDENT REPLICATION 3
6. Save a copy of the document used in Replication above.
7. Select all. Delete, leaving a blank document.
8. Repeat steps 2 - 5 in Independent Replication 2 above.
Many thanks. Hope it is sufficient. Please confirm.
