Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 100792
AutoCaption with more than one word does not increment caption number
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:17:52 UTC
The issue pertains to adding a new autocaption category with more than one word on object insertion e.g. Frame. For example, if I add one word category in the caption like Figure, Spreadsheet, Fig, Code, etc, then the Caption Number increments correctly. However, when it comes to two or more words for a custom category, the Caption Number does not increment at all. It seems that the binding value for [Category Name] + 1 (shown when I double click the caption number) cannot recognise Category Name with two words or more.
@farhr: Thanx for finding this! (Tip: you don't need to set yourself on CC for the issue you report) @OS: quite any "special character" (!"§$%6/...) in the "Category" field will break the caption numbering. They should be escaped. Confirmed in OOO310m8
Thanks for the tip.
