Description Daniel Grigoras 2015-10-16 10:06:16 UTC
List "restart numbering" is not preserved in documents for the first lists in a document, despite applying "Restart numbering" for the first item of the lists.

I'm working with a master document and each of the first lists in the subdocuments continue their numbering in the master document starting from the last number of the list in the previous subdocument.

I decide to try applying the "Restart numbering" property to the first list of each subdocument, but unfortunately this property seems to be lost on document closing and reopening, despite prior saving of the document with this property change.

Please fix.

Could not reproduce.

1. New master document
2. Insert new subdocument
3. Created a numbered list
4. Insert new subdocument
5. Created a numbered list, applying "Restart numbering" to the first item
6. Updated master document

List numbering for 2nd subdocument starts from 1.
Save & reload of master document doesn't change anything.

You should attach a test case.

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the test case.

Masterdocument and subdocuments in which the list numbers are no longer renumbered starting with subdocument3

You can observe the renumbering issue with the lists on page 9, lists that belong to subdocument3.

I opened subdocument3, went to the first numbering entry, selected Restart numbering.
Reloading master document showed that the problem was gone.

Really? Well I did that three times to no avail. Would you like to use TeamViewer to convince yourself. I've said in my initial post that "restart numbering" is not preserved in documents when I save them, as is in the case of subdocument3. What? Don't tell me I'll have to delete my user profile for this to work, as this was the solution I was given to fix the page number alignment in the table of contents, and I have to reset my user profile each time I updated a TOC if I want to have the page numbers properly aligned, which is really lame, but that's a different topic to which no solution was offered to me except denial of the issue.

Now I opened the master document again and the problem was still present. Weird.. Could not get it right, so setting to NEW.

Yet, you could also try with a completely new document, if you can reproduce it.

I was not able to reproduce this with completely new documents.
