But, questions, which strongly belong to a certain OOo application, can
also be asked in the mailing list of this application.
Good, so here are the comments re: ODF spec, quite verbose, I'm afraid.
I attached to issue 53420 a writer document [2] I created using a
patched version of OOo to show what I have in mind. The feature is not
persistent, I changed only the index bodies, if you update the indexes
with a standard OOo version, you'll loose the "chapter-page" feature in
the index body. I can provide the patch to OOo if you'd like to do some
testing, it patches only the sw module.
Looking for a way to make the new feature persistent in the ODT file
according to the ODF standard [1], it seems to me there is something
missing or, more probably, I can't make out how an index entry should be
filled to obtain what I attached as an example.
In the "Table of Content Entry Template" ([1] 7.3.2), when it comes down
to the chapter number explained in [1]7.12.1, the "Display Chapter
Format" attribute seems to lack the value needed to generate the chapter
number with neither prefix nor suffix as is instead specified for fields
(see [1]6.2.7 "text:display" attribute). If I'm not wrong the missing
value is "plain-number". Furthermore to only display the chapter number
up to a chosen outline level, the attribute "outline-level" is needed as
well.
The [1]7.7.2 "User-Defined Index Entry Template" and [1]7.8.3
"Alphabetical Index Entry Template" have the same format as [1]7.3.2
just explained: the same attributes/values are missing from chapter
numbering.
The "User-Defined Index Entry Template" has the chapter number
attribute, but this is not available on the OOo dialog window for that
type of index, whereas the "Alphabetical Index Entry Template" dialog
has it.
In the [1]7.4.2 "Illustration Index Entry Template" the chapter
numbering is completely missing in the spec, hence it's missing from the
indexes which use this same template: [1]7.5.2 "Table Index Entry
Template" and [1]7.6.2 "Object Index Entry Template".
The solution should be to update the "text-index-entry-chapter"
attribute by adding it the value needed (plain-number) and added the
attribute "outline-level", then add the attribute
"text-index-entry-chapter" to the entries that don't have it.
There is something to be discussed about how the "Alphabetical Index"
entry are to be grouped in order to maintain the chapter-page numbering
stuff correct, we'll talk about that later.
One last thing: I started with issue 53420, but is seems to me that
issue 14725 [3] refers to the same topic, even if it was for OOo 1.x
code line.
