Description Elmar 2020-02-20 12:56:28 UTC
Description:
I want heading number font size to be slightly smaller than the heading text. If I set it to a any %, it is too small. Changing the % to a different number has no effect

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In heading style, set Numbering style to Numbering 1
2. In Numbering1 style / customise set character style to Numbering Symbols
3. in Numbering symbols set to 95%

Actual Results:
heading number appears too small


Expected Results:
Expect it to be proportionately in line with % set


Reproducible: Always

I confirm the steps, but I don't think, it's a dublicate. Font size is 11,3 pt. that is 95% of the default size of 12 pt. Why sould it be percentage of the font size of Heading 1?

=> NOTABUG (PLease feel free to change it back to UNCONFIRMED with a short reasoning, if you disagree.

Additional information: Why don't you use chapter numbering from TOOLS => Chapter numbering (seems a more easier way to me)
Comment 3 Elmar 2020-02-21 09:02:36 UTC
@Dieter
The reason I use % is because I want it to be slightly smaller than than the heading size. If it is 11.3pt it looks odd.

Elmar I understand, but 11,3pt is 95% of 12pt. So if it should be a little smaller than 18pt (font size of heading), you should for example use 130% (of 12pt).

Please explain, why do you think, the current behaviour is a bug => NEEDINFO
Comment 6 BogdanB 2020-04-11 21:23:39 UTC
I think the problem is that numbers have the same small fonts, and letters from headings are different... and they dont match.

I think Dieter gave explanation why this is NotABug.
For font size X heading is 130% or 150% of base size so little smaller is 110% and not 90%.
