Bug ID: 170341
Summary: custom numbering panel enchance
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice

Description:
Hello,
I would like to suggest an improvement to the numbering section.
Steps to Reproduce:
Specifically, it would be very useful to add an option to define custom
numbering, even if it is only available through programming or an advanced
configuration panel. Ideally, this could be done via an additional settings
panel that uses the same template as the existing numbering options. This is
important so users can adapt easily and implement custom logic without having
to change the core program or their usual workflow.
A simpler mode would also be perfectly acceptable. Whether the feature is
advanced or basic is not critical—the key point is enabling greater flexibility
to support different languages and numbering definitions.
In my particular case, I work with legal documentation, and there are
situations where certain numbers must be defined using Spanish ordinal or named
conventions within a single number, while the rest of the document follows the
standard numbering pattern. Even the ability to make a small character-level
modification would be enough to allow proper customization.
Another possible approach could be introducing a “number style” feature,
similar to character styles. However, this might be more complex than
necessary. A more straightforward solution would be to include a “custom
number” option within the existing customization or numbering panel.
Thank you for considering this enhancement.
Best regards
