Description openoffice.org 2003-08-01 21:17:56 UTC 
It would be very convenient if there was an option to change the numbering style
from the change paragraph style dialog.

In my opinion there should be a button just aside the dropdown for selecting the
numbering style on a paragraph wich links to the change numbering style dialog
of the selected numbering style.

I'm not sure if it would be 'impossible', as at this moment it's being prevented
having 2 change style dialogs open. I am also aware of the fact that two dialogs
open at the same time doesn't really add to usability in general, but in this
place it would come really in handy.

Small case example:
I tried to change the heading style to a style wich is being numbered, but the
default numbering styles didn't include a style "<number>.<some space>".
It was my first time trying to accomplish this and had no idea where the
numbering styles listed in the drop down at the pagestyle numbering tab came from.
After a too long search (about 3 hours) I found out that it were the numbering
styles of the document...

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
