Description K K 2022-08-09 21:22:47 UTC
Description:
An ordered list in a document will reset the footnote sequence even the footnotes are on the same page. I don't know if it's because the ordered list was "reset" that caused the issue or the list in general could cause that. The footnote sequence setting was "start at per chapter". The footnote sequence got a reset per each ordered list. The sequence reset at the beginning of the list not even after.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tools->Footnotes and Endnotes. In Footnotes, select "Start at 'Per chapter'"
2. Adding footnotes as usual and the sequence should reset for each chapter normally
3. Add an ordered list for each chapter. Right click one of the list to "List -> Restart Numbering"
4. The footnote sequence will get reset from the beginning of each ordered list.

Actual Results:
The footnote sequence got reset from the beginning of an ordered list within the same chapter.

Expected Results:
The footnote sequence should remain the in sequence within the same chapter regardless of any list in the document.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The footnote sequence should behave normally regardless the existence of any ordered list.
