Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 34859
Chapter numbering when crossreferencing bookmarks
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:20:12 UTC
I have a document where one part of the Headings uses numbers (1.1.1) and another part uses an appendix format (A.2.2) I define a bookmark on one of the appendix headings and when I crossreference the bookmark, selecting the chapter number, something weird shows up.

Well, from the "OOo Writer's point of view"the way you use the outline numbering cannot work and the reference also. To make it work in the Writer, do as following: - delete any formatting (paragrph styles and numberings) from the Appendix titles - Apply to Appendix level 1, 2, 3 respectively the styles Heading 5, 6, 7 - Go to "Tools - Outline numbering" - Apply Heading styles 5, 6, 7 to Levels 4, 5, 6. - For Heading 5, define: Number "A,B,C..."; Showlevel: "1" - For Heading 6, define: Number "1,2,3..."; Showlevel: "2" - For Heading 7, define: Number "1,2,3..."; Showlevel: "3" ES->MRU: Because it's an import of MS-Word, do you know about such outline numbering mapping roblems?
I followed the instructions with a freshly installed OpenOffice 1.1.3 on a template file. I saved the template and then created a new file out of it (see attached) When I saved the document I saw the outline numbering. But when I reopen the document, the numbering of the appendices disappears!!!

???? ES->OS:Can you please help finding out why the appendix styles/parargraph loose their numbering? I thought I'd fake double serie of Outline numbering using Headin 1-4 for normal Outline numbering on level 1-4 and "restarting" the numbering at level 6 by displaying only the first sublevel. This works fine if I use the predefined "Heading" style but as you see in the attached doc, using custom styles "Appendix" lead to a numbering loss.. Any Idea?

Created attachment 18176 [details] Another test case which shows the same behaviour
Created attachment 18192 [details] Workaround: Use heading 5 to 8 directly. The problem seems to be the appendix styles linked to the heading styles.
Seems to be working on OOo 3.0 Beta :-)
