            Bug ID: 151305
           Summary: Need indication of when separators + number will
                    exceed the width
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.4.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

When we edit the numbering details (e.g. in Impress' "More Numbering" on the
Numbering menubutton, or in Write) - we specify pre-number and post-number
separators, plus a width for the separators+number.

It is easily to mistakenly enter a width value which is insufficient for the
number and the separators.

It would be useful if, in the dialog, we could get some indication of whether
this happens.

Naturally, that depends on what the number is. But the indication can do one of
the following:

* Know what the current number is (or the number after the numbering is
applied)
* Use the start-at value
* Say what's the first number with which the width will be exceeded.

I actually don't have a specific suggestion of how this should be done. But -
it is annoying to have to figure out that this happened only retrospectively.
