Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 48487
Allow Outline Numbering to change based on the Page Style
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:37:46 UTC
This is a feature request for OOo Later. This request is for Outline Numbering to change based on the Page Style. This is important for large documents in that this allows numbering to be different when in the body of a large document or an Appendix without having to resort to creating custom styles. For example, the body would have: 1 Heading 1 1.1 Heading 2 1.1.1 Heading 3 While an Appendix would have: 10.1 Heading 1 10.1.1 Heading 2 10.1.1.1 Heading or: A.1 Heading 1 A.1.1 Heading 2 A.1.1.1 Heading 3 This feature would facilitate the creation of large documents for the US Government and large corporations that use such numbering, and have specialized programs such as Broadvision Quicksilver or Framemaker to create these documents. This is a companion request of Issue 14725.

Of course, when you insert an Index/Table, and click on the Outline button under the Index/Table tab, you will be able from the dialog box to select which page style you want included. A Page Style of "All" may have to be added in the Outline Numbering dialog box Page Style dropdown list if you want to include all Heading styles from the whole document, and not just one Page Style such as Default or Appendix.

Just checked in OOo 2.4. No the request hath not been granted yet. It is still impossible to do the below Heading example without resorting to major hacks and manual work.
