Thanks for the quick reply!

Regarding the dependence structure of the mentioned issues you may be right. I
think implementing the specification of this issue is the first big step...
</quote>
Sounds reasonable, but you may want to change the status of Issue 5038 to
reflect this. Otherwise the efforts of various contributors to 5038 will be
lost.

- If I have a Heading 1 in Chapter 1, numbered 1.1, and I cut and
paste this to appendix 1, is should automatically be numbered A.1.
</quote>
I think this will not work in cws outlinelevel.... and the
paragraph "appendix 1" (numbered A) needs to be in the same list OR the
cut-and-pasted paragraph has to be moved from its list to the list of
paragraph "appendix 1".
</quote>
It would be great if we could define/override numbering formats at the paragraph
level so that an 'Appendix' paragraph format could be defined based on 'Chapter'
that just overrides the numbering (and restarts it).

- I need to be able to define table, figure, map & plate numbering that is
independant of heading numbering, but increments inside chapters. So if the
first FIGURE appears under a Heading 3 item that is numbered 5.2.3, then
I would expect the figure to be numbered 5.1.
</quote>
This is already possible since OOo 1.x.
</quote>
Last time I looked it was hard to define a 'Figure 2' (and 'Figure 3') format
that worked like 'heading 2/3' in terms of numbering; I want to be able to
specify that 'Figure 2' has numbering 'inside' of 'Figure 1' and that that the
format is lower case alpha. eg. 'Figure 1(a)'.
<quote>
<quote>
- If I change the top level heading format in a chapter from 'Chapter' to
'Appendix', all sub-headings should automatically change appropriately
(eg. from '5.2.3' to 'A.2.3').
</quote>
This seems to be something like your first point.
</quote>
You are correct; I just wanted to emphasize the point and make it clear the
extent to which I htink it needs to be integrated.
<quote>
<quote>
- The ability to construct a List-of-Figures (and List-of-Plates etc) that
works like a TOC, but for the specified paragraph types.
</quote>
I do not know what you really mean. You can already create a table
of contents, which is only build-up by user defined paragraph styles.
</quote>
afaict, TOC workd only on 'outline' paragraphs. We need a parallel mechanism
that produces a 'List of Figures' which is exactly like a TOC, but for 'Figure
1', 'Figure 2' etc.
Ditto for 'List of Plates' (based on paragraph formats for 'Plate 1', 'Plate 2'
etc.
These lists are separate from the TOC, but would be formatted similarly. Bear in
mind that some books number Plates (usually pictures) in a numbering system that
is *outside* Chapter numbering, while others number them inside chapters.
<quote>
<quote>
- The ability to have sub-figures (eg. Fig 1(a)) that function similarly
to paragraphs in terms of counter incrementing etc.
</quote>
Here I am also unsure about what kind of feature do you mean.
</quote>
See above. Let me know if you need more clarification. I am very happy to help.
The above requirements are why I suggested it would be more useful to associate
a counter with a paragraph format (in the thread for Issue 5038), and that we
should allow a counter to have an (optional) parent. We would also need to allow
the paragraph to specify/overide the numbering at the given outline level.
