[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 131728] FILEOPEN DOCX Support style separators
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131728 --- Comment #8 from larrybradley --- This is an ongoing issue that has been reported in at least two separate bug report and the developers have responded once with "ways to accomplish this without developing an actual style separator" (my description) and, in this bug report, "Looks like this is a bit of an obscure feature as this article says MS doesn't include any help content for it." In the case of both bug reports with which I am familiar, the users were trying to compose legal documents that have very specific formatting requirements. I have also had this requirement when I was composing Contract documents, and I can insure the developers that the suggested workarounds (they hate that word) are not acceptable to the attorneys. That is one reason why we were forced to use MS Word, because it has a built-in Style Separator. And I can assure the developers that if this is an "obscure" feature for most users, it is not a trivial or obsolete feature and it is not obscure for those whose work requires it. It it was trivial and unnecessary, MS would not have included it in Microsoft 365 Word, and they would have by now removed it from the desktop version of Word. If the devs simply don't want to be bothered with something that is critical to some small (but significant) portion of users and potential users, just say so; however, the tone of this and other discussions on this topic is one seems to me to be a bit too incredulous and dismissive on the dev side. If there is no appetite for ever addressing this issue with the one acceptable solution—to develop a built-in Style Separator that mimics the outcome of the MS Style Separator—please spare us any more effort on our part making the request, providing the rationale, and sending example file. Thanks for all that you do, and thanks for listening. LO is a great product, much better than MS Word in most respects, but not an option for those people who work with legal documents, unfortunately. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131728 brucehatfi...@gmail.com changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |NEEDINFO --- Comment #7 from brucehatfi...@gmail.com --- Word style separators are perhaps the key feature lacking in Libreoffice that prevents widespread Law office/legislator usage of LO Writer. I translate patents and other documents for US Federal court (+ other jurisdictions) and first came aware of the use of style separators to minimize navigation pane content to essential content (instructions from judge's clerk). Basically it means only the essential part of a heading can now be indexed in the navigation pane/pdf bookmarks (converted from word). There is extensive discussion of style separators in the Microsoft community demonstrating the important - not obscure - role of this function: e.g. •Formatting issue with style separator when combined with equations and automatic numbering (Office 2013) Nov 19, 2015 https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/formatting-issue-with-style-separator-when/e32e9e4e-5edd-4103-88a8-9cdf65a94458 •Updating TOC breaks style separators (Ctrl+Alt+Enter) Jun 17, 2020 https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/updating-toc-breaks-style-separators-ctrlaltenter/a248dd2e-31e0-47de-8874-22bf1473849e •Run-in sidehead in TOC Nov 10, 2013 https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/run-in-sidehead-in-toc/0c1b77e3-4c3c-4324-8277-e8f4f51d37d7 ◧ As for discussion of use in university thesis writing of style separators as an example: "Creating an Inline Heading" mentioning that the APA style defines a level-three heading as being indented in italic on the same line as the first sentence in the paragraph. https://wordribbon.tips.net/T012723_Creating_an_Inline_Heading.html So the issue is VERY IMPORTANT as it is a programming omission that renders Writer unusable in perhaps all complex document preparation. If the task is too difficult pls advise so we know whether this key feature can finally be included or not. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
