Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 69694
Tab does not change Outline level for first paragraph in document
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:15:48 UTC
Pressing Tab when at the start of a line increments the outline level of the paragraph, eg from Heading 1 to Heading 2. If the paragraph is the first paragraph in the document which is part of the outline then the same action indents all the headings instead of incrementing the outline level. To reproduce: create a default document with two lines of Heading 1 text. At start of 2nd line confirm that Tab moves the text to Heading 2. At start of first line notice it indents both headings, leaving their heading levels unchanged. The relevant entry in the help file says: To move a numbered or bulleted paragraph down one outline level, click at the beginning of the paragraph, and then press Tab. HTH, Peter
MRU->OD: the Numbering/Bullet 1 specification states that the tab key at the first position of a numbered list should indent the whole list. But IME this is not useful for Outlines; especially when they are not numbered. So this should be changed for outline paragraphs.
As MRU stated above, the described "defect" is indented and specified behavior. But, I agree that this behavior doesn't make sense for paragraphs, which are headings and have a numbering style - in this case the outline numbering - applied. Thus, I propose to change the issue type to "ENHANCEMENT". I will discuss with MRU and FL the proposed change.
according to release status meeting -> 3.x
