Comment 1 sdc.blanco 2023-02-21 23:34:37 UTC 
The OP should have specified that Type: Table of Contents was selected on the Type tab, before switching to the Entries tab.

I believe this problem arises because:

<bookmark xml-lang="en-US" branch="hid/modules/swriter/ui/tocentriespage/entryoutlinelevel" id="bm_id354930" localize="false"/>

appears on line 45 of source/text/swriter/01/04120222.xhp

The bookmark is part of the <eval> section, which gets embedded into   source/text/swriter/01/04120221.xhp (the help page for ToC).  

This probably explains why "Alphabetical Index" is shown.

But it gets worse.  The embedding in 04120221.xhp is part of the <format> section in that file, which gets embedded into 04120223.xhp (Illustration), 04120224.xhp (Tables), 04120225.xhp (user-defined), and 04120226.xhp (objects)
  -- so the same problem happens if these Types are selected on the Type tab, and then F1 is used in the "Evaluate up to level"

Note that "Evaluate up to level" is becoming "Show up to level" (bug 105628).

What is "OP" here? (and "DF" in another report?)
Comment 3 sdc.blanco 2023-02-22 22:07:35 UTC 
OP is:  Place cursor in spinbox for "Evaluate up to level"  in Entries tab and press F1, where Type is "Table of Contents"
Comment 4 Dione Maddern 2024-08-09 13:49:21 UTC 
It looks like the real problem here is that the same spinbox widget (modules/swriter/ui/tocentriespage/entryoutlinelevel) is used in the ui regardless of whether you select "Table of Contents" or "Alphabetical Index" in the "Type" tab.

I'm sure it's an efficient way to design the ui, but it occasionally creates problems when we're trying to place bookmarks on the right page.

I ran across the same problem in Bug 155012, and I'm not sure what we can do about it yet.
Comment 5 Dione Maddern 2024-08-09 13:50:43 UTC 
Also it looks like "E#" is not "N#" now, if anybody is trying to reproduce the bug.
