I have a long document (ported from FrameMaker) which I want to use to produce multiple output versions. I have defined conditional sections which are hidden depending on which version is being produced. However, heading numbers continue to be incremented inside hidden sections. This makes it impossible to output multiple document versions using the conditional text feature to control which text gets included in each version. I note that Apache OOo tracker has this as a bug in their system which has unfortunately been open for 10 years now! https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=36611 Hopefully LibreOffice can deal to it in a more timely manner! Cheers!

I have confirmed that this bug still exists in LibreOffice 5.1.0.3, running on Ubuntu 14.04. Here is the info from About LibreOffice: Version: 5.1.0.3 Build ID: 5e3e00a007d9b3b6efb6797a8b8e57b51ab1f737 CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Linux 3.13; UI Render: default; Locale: en-NZ (en_NZ.utf8)
Same problem here. Version: 5.1.0.3 Win7. The same behaviour you will have with all „Number ranges“ located in conditional sections. Make the section invisible and they still will be increased. It would be great if condtions have influrence on all Number ranges (I guess outline numbering is just a hidden Number range). Possible workaround: Number ranges can be manipulated. For instance if your condition can be true (1) or false (0) a common “Figure = Figure+1” can be changed to “Figure = Figure+CONDITION”. Of course this is only a workaround and it has its limitiations when conditions are getting more complex. But while you can manipulate Number ranges you have no influrence on outline numbering.

Windows 10 Entreprise 64 bits version 10.0.18363 LibreOffice 64 bits version 7.0.5.2 The problem is still present. The numbering is incremented by hidden elements (paragraphs, sections, titles, elements of a simple numbered list...). The importance level of this bug (normal) seems to me underestimated, because without this important feature, LibreOffice can't replace FrameMaker !
Created attachment 171504 [details] Hidden section/paragraph count in numbering list Switch variable to N to see the problem...
