The participation of outline levels in numbering means what exactly? I *guess* you mean things like table captions or formula numbering (created using respective numbering fields); and the intended use of that feature is exactly per-chapter numbering - thus the outline level being a synonym of chapter is clear, again. But indeed, one is not forced to use features only as intended - any creative (mis)use is OK. But when one would use outline levels for that, one could limit the outline levels in Navigator to only those levels that are used for chapters. Again: using features outside of their intended use (outline level of paragraphs = (sub)chapter heading) is OK, but not a reason to introduce some changes that make everyone's life (except yours) much harder. Most (MOST) users would be confused (to put it politely) if your proposal is implemented. > I understand that you're stating, or claiming, that Outline level = Heading > level. But as long as different names are used, then they're not. These > words are not synonyms. They are. The "words" in any program are not "words of human language". They are terms, and they mean specific things in the program, and that meaning should not (and cannot) match all the breadth of meaning the human language word bears. The LibreOffice Writer's Outline level is the same as LibreOffice Writer's Heading level.

So - your problem in this discussion is just that you believe that you know how we should use words, and if we are allowed or not to use some of them as synonyms. And you know what, you may discuss that (renaming the three to a single term), and it might even make sense - but it is not what this issue is about. Closing WONTFIX again (in fact, it should be INVALID, because WONTFIX means "there's a problem, but resolving it is undesirable", while this is "I do not want to believe that the term means what it really means"). Nothing to discuss here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
