Description: In the German version of LibreOffice it is not possible to define permantly a number range with the term „Figure“. Purpose: If you use the German version of LibreOffice and would like to write documents in English, then it is necessary to translate the labels for instance Figures. By default all images are labeled with “Abbildung”. To perform the translation, it is necessary to define a number range with the term „Figure“. Following this help file: https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Defining_Number_Ranges Now you can choose the term „Figure“ from the drop down menu instead of “Abbildung”. When you now label several images, save the document and restart it, then number range is deleted (after restart). The term „Figure“ is not in the drop down menu or available as variable (Insert - Field - More Fields). Only the images have the remaining label, but the number is always 1. If you insert again “Figure” it has no effect on the remaining images. Also it will not be saved. The bug effects only the term “Figure”, varieties like “figure” or “Gigure” are working. I captured my procedure here: https://youtu.be/HqPLf7ANFvs Tested on: -Windows 8.1 LibreOffice 5.0.5.2 works (no problem) -Windows 7 Libre Version: 6.1 or 6.2.6 or 6.3.0.4 (x64) not working -same machine Openoffice 4 works -Winxp (VM) Openoffice 3 works the bug is this discussed in this forum (german) https://www.libreoffice-forum.de/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=23246 Steps to Reproduce: 1.use a German version of LibreOffice 2.define a number range with the term „Figure“ 3.label images with the new number range „Figure“ 4. save the document and restart Libreoffice. Actual Results: -the number for „Figure“ are all 1. -the number range „Figure“ is deleted -again define a number range with the term „Figure“ has no effect. Expected Results: -continuous numbering of the number range „Figure“ -parmanent available variable „Figure“ Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: The bug effects only the term “Figure”, varieties like “figure” or “Gigure” are working.
