Bug ID: 161819
Summary: enable inheriting chapter numbering from parent style
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I found some reference to this issue/idea in the forum but not in Bugzilla.
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/multiple-paragraph-styles-per-chapter-numbering-level/56979/4
Right now only one paragraph style per level can be defined to have the
automatic chapter numbering. Sometimes there might be cases where different
header styles with the same chapter level would be useful.
For example my university requires no space when a level 2 header follows right
below a level 1 header. But if you have text in between there is supposed to be
a defined amount of space. The university also offers a document template but
for MS Office which unfortunately breaks when trying to use in LibreOffice.
Having the ability to inherit chapter numbering from the parent style (you
create a style depending on 'header 2' for example) would be a big time safer
by not having to manually adjust header paragraphs depending on their context.
It would also improve compatibility towards MS Office and make migration
easier.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a paragraph style dependent on a header paragraph style that is part
of the automatic chapter numbering
Actual Results:
chapter numbering is shown under Lists & numbering tab but is not getting
applied to paragraphs in the document
Expected Results:
child styles inherit chapter numbering from parent style
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
