Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 77210
Page style dependant outline numbering
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:37:41 UTC
Sometimes documents are composed of different sections with different processing rules (document + annexes, document + preamble or service pages, etc) OO.o recognizes this need allowing to define different page numbering rules (roman, arabic, etc) in page styles. Unfortunately the same trick is not possible for outline numbering. You either have to use different chapter styles for the special section (and they're not recognized in TOC) or use the common outline styles asking manually to restart numbering at section change (but you can't change the outline numbering style from roman to arabic at this point) I'd like to be able to associate a different outline chapter style set to different page styles, with the option to restart chapter numbering at page style change (ie either A B C 4 5 6 7 or A B C 1 2 3 4)
Reassigned to requirements.
The underlying cause here is that Outline Numbering is crippled. See http://tools.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5038
