Description Rahul Raoniar 2017-12-19 15:36:20 UTC
Description:
I think the numbering sections and subsections chapter wise is quite complicated process. Even when I start writing a journal or my thesis I personally found that setting up initial setup of numbering chapters and sections quite complicated. In every documentation students need this feature in first step. 

i)It would be very much appreciated if chapter numbering such as sections and subsections tool kept in one tab in LibreOffice.  

ii) Please provide a section where the chapter setup can be saved so that any one can use it later for other documentation



Steps to Reproduce:
1.Provide a tab or section where we can directly set the sections and subsections numbering that would go for whole document
2.Provide one simple tab at that section so that when moved to next chapter by pressing that tab we can alter the chapter number for example chapter 2 so that after when we click on the section it would provide 2.1, 2.2 and so on
3.

Actual Results:  
Actually it quite complicated. First create a section wise numbering then link individually to created heading options the for every chapter put section breaks and so on

Expected Results:
I guess if it would get implemented in LibreOffice, it definitely makes document writing simple


Reproducible: Always

Chapter numbering

Just for clarification, you are talking about the dialog that opens via Tools > Chapter Numbering? Or do you change 'Outline' per 'Bullets and Numbering' to any chapter heading, which applies this format of all headings? Or do you want to  define a numbered style for the headings?
