            Bug ID: 153549
           Summary: Rename  Tools > "Chapter Numbering" to "Heading
                    Numbering"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.7.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sdc.bla...@youmail.dk

Outline numbering was changed to "Chapter Numbering" (bug 107573) primarily
with the hope that it would be easier for users to understand the purpose of
the dialog. This renaming was confirmed in bug 141452.  A review of the
discussion in both of these tickets shows that "Heading" was not considered a
candidate for the renaming. This ticket proposes that the dialog should be
renamed "Heading Numbering"

Reasons for change:

- in LO “chapter” refers only headings with outline level 1. The change would
make it easier to explain some points in help, and avoid confusion that dialog
is only applicable to documents with chapters (both in the LO meaning and the
everyday meaning).

- make it easier to understand that the dialog can also used with documents
that are not chapters (e.g., journal articles, student papers).

- may improve recognition for using this dialog for numbering headings instead
of using Bullets and Numbering DF.

- would be consistent with Navigator, which uses "headings"
