Bug ID: 99695
Summary: Editing
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.1.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: m...@interak.com
Table of Contents feature only indexes Paragraph styles, while indexing feature
can index selected terms. As a result, one cannot effectively generate a ToC
with more than two headings in an APA styled document.
The APA Publication Manual (Section 3.03, Pg 62) mandates a Heading 3
style that that is bold and indented (1/2 an inch like a normal
paragraph), and then followed on the same line by the text.
That means one cannot use a paragraph style, as the paragraph needs to
actually be normal body text (Default in most cases). If one uses a
generated ToC, then text that is styled with a Heading style is
used in the ToC, so you don't want a paragraph that looks like normal
but for which you bold the first bit.
It would be handy if the ToC generator would provide the option to add
non-Paragraph styles to materials that are included in the generated ToC (it
does this for other Paragraph styles). The only alternative solution is for
users to kludge their own custom index to use as a ToC in place of that
provided. In as much as a substantial portion of those who might have recourse
to use Writer will have reason to use APA or APA consistent style, it would
seem a no-brainer to add this functionality.
