I guess that parts should not start at 1, but use the same numbering as the transcript? What if different fonts/fontsizes are used? Then the numbers don'T match again. Anyway - Instead of opeing the linenumber-menu, open Format|Paragraph→Numbering OOo remembers the last tab, so you don't have to switch to the Numbering tab manually every time. > Having them in \format\paragraph\numbering or having them in \format\numbering > isn't the question (both make sense), but please have only ONE menue point. Format|Numbering is a totally different thing than linenumbering. Numbering enumerates paragraphs, in the sense of "point one: <bla>, point two: <bla>, point 3: <bla>, has a grouping sense) Linenumbering just is that: counting the number of lines. > Or (and this was my idea in my first post) leave everything as it is and > 'simply' add a checkbox (start line numbering with) and an entry field (5 > digits should be enough) where the linenumber to start with can be entered in > \format\numbering. Again - even when you mean Tools|Linenumbering - this doesn't make sense. It would depend on where the cursor is and this ist just a bad thing. The Tools|Linenumbering dialog sets the global options. The "restart at number" thing is a property of the paragraph. If the paragraph moves, that doesn't matter, it is still assigned to that paragraph. Imaginge a user placing the curor at the top of the page and then choosing Extras|Linenumbering and sets it to restart at 1 because he wants to restart it at the beginning of page 2. Now he adds more text and pushes the first paragraph of page 2 further down. HE could then end up with something like 55 blabla - used to be on page one [...] 1 that formerly was at the top of the page This is surely not what the user intended to do. And you cannot make clear in the dialog that it is a paragraph property. - But this is how writer works. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
