Was this documentation in a Styles chapter of the Writer Guide
perhaps? If so, where in this guide was it located? If not, what
documentation did you mean?
I think the answer you are seeking is found in the Styles and
Formating window.
Use the F11 key to open it. There are several icons at the top; the
one of the left (Paragraph styles) is the one you want. At the bottom of
the window is a drop down list with Automatic selected by Default
(unless you have changed it). Select "All Styles". In that list you will
find the Numbering N * paragraph styles. Right click anyone of them and
select Modify from the context menu (it is a pop up window.) Click the
"Outline & Numbering" tab. When you want to add a numbering or bullet
style to your paragraph style, you select it here.
The paragraph style dictates the properties of the paragraph. The
numbering (or list [bullet]) style dictates the numbering that appears
at the beginning of each paragraph.
