--- Comment #14 from Albrecht Müller <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #12) > thanks :) > Pls note, in some situations you need different outline-styles (e.g. the > default Tools > Outline numbering + one handled via the Outline tab of a > paragraph style). > Ergo: there is not just one outline style. It is clear to me that there is more than one outline style. But there are two different categories, and the proposed additional button in the "Styles and Formatting" is intended to reflect this. My current understanding is: a) The first category is the outline style you define by Tools -> Outline Numbering. There is only one style in this category, and this is not a kind of default style for category b). This is the only style that is bound to the outline levels that are used to structure a document and which are the basis for creating the table of contents. You can specify this level in the "Outline & Numbering" tab of the "Paragraph Style" window, provided that you do not include this paragraph style into outline numbering. In this case you cannot use the "Styles and Formatting" mechanism as the necessary controls in the "Outline & Numbering" tab are disabled. You can have no more than one paragraph style per outline level. This mechanism serves to structure a document and makes sure that the document uses a single common outline style, that headings at the same outline level use the same paragraph style etc. b) It is possible to define an arbitrary number of list styles. Every list style is also an outline style. That is why I think the proposed common style preview makes sense. List styles use an outline level that is independent of the level you specify in the "Outline & Numbering" tab. In many cases only the first level is used. Therefore the fact that the list style is actually an outline style is not apparent. You change the relevant outline level using the tab or shift tab keys when the cursor is at the start of the paragraph. This kind of outline level is not relevant for the table of contents. It is used for various structured and unstructured lists within a document, but not for structuring the document itself. Note: Every paragraph can have up to two independent outline levels, one for each category. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
