Description Irving 2016-03-08 18:27:33 UTC

Libreoffice Writer does not have a modern intuitive page numbering dialog. All modern word-processing office suites have a way to easily insert page number, location (top of page, bottom of page), alignment (right, center left justified), text before and text after number. Number reset to a particular section, numbering scheme (roman, arabic), etc. It is an important function of all word processors and it should not be relegated to an extension. The current solution is buried in a fields menu and it is very unintuitive.

Thanks for filing. Interesting enough I can't find an issue for this :)   *
So set to new.

Cheers - Cor
