Go to paragraph, which shows '12'
Right Mouseclick > Demote One Level
... and so on for all following paragraphs ...

Could be you have to change the numbering:
Right Mouseclick > Bullets and Numbering > Customize
Goto Level '2', set 'Show sublevels' and set it to '2'.

Peggy -

I don't really understand Wade Smart's response, but have you tried 
right-clicking in the affect cell and selecting 'Unprotect Cells'?

[libreoffice-users] Writer paragraph numbered list issue

2018-06-04 Thread bunk3m

Hi!

Today I've had 2 frustrations with LO Writer (6.0.4 & 6.2a).  To keep 
this shorter and easier to follow, I'm posting two topics


This email has the second of those frustrations.

I have a legal document that was originally a MS Word doc.  I don't want 
to rebuild the complete document to fix page numbering and 
outline/paragraph numbering style.  I would appreciate any pointers on 
how to fix the following issue.


The legal document has numbering for paragraphs.  There is a section of 
paragraphs that has a second level of number in the Word document.  That 
second level of number hasn't translated over into LO properly. ie. top 
level is 1., second level is 1.1 This worked fine in MS Word.


I've tried to change the paragraph numbering in bullet & number style 
but that hasn't worked.  I can't get any of the numbering to change.


The document goes from paragraph 1 to 11 and then should have 11.1 to 
11.9 but I end up with paragraph 1 to 20.


How do I change the paragraph number style and get it to stick.

Thank you in advance.

PS I'm on digest mode so would appreciate if you can cc me directly on 
any suggestions.

[libreoffice-users] Writer page numbering issue + numbered list issue

2018-06-04 Thread bunk3m

Hi!

Today I've had 2 frustrations with LO Writer (6.0.4 & 6.2a).  To keep

This email has one of those frustrations.

I have a legal document that was originally a MS Word doc.  I don't want 
to rebuild the complete document to fix page numbering and 
outline/paragraph numbering style.  I would appreciate any pointers on 
how to fix the following 2 issues.


I started using LO earlier this year and have found page numbers a 
challenge.


I have a legal document that was usually added into or appended to a 
proposal document that was printed to a pdf.


So I have changed the page number in the legal document to start with 
the page following the last page of the proposal. ie. proposal has five 
pages so the legal document would start on page 6.


I've been to a dozen websites and seen a few youtube videos but still 
can't get the page number to change from "4".  I'd like it to be "1" for 
the present document.


What I've tried.  a) Delete the footer; b) delete the footer, then reset 
the default footer; c) in the page style change the type flow option to 
set the page number.  Nothing works.


How do I manually change the starting page number for the legal 
document?  What's the secret to get this to work?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Language not "picked" correctly

2018-06-04 Thread Tim-L
When I made a clean install on this laptop for Ubuntu 18.04, I did not 
install Vivaldi.


I had it on the old setup for a while, but only used once, when I 
actually downloaded it.  So, I did not install it, yet{?}.


It is weird that my Ubuntu install shows en_GB instead of en_US. Your 
Ubuntu/Debian based OS gets .rpm instead .deb.  I get my problem with 
the latest repository version of Firefox - 60.0.1.


I do not use Chromium, but add Chrome for those web sites who refuses to 
allow Firefox to be used.

Henri added that I should go and chose the language option. Yes I can do
that, and did so, but how many of the people who download LO will not think
about that till they try to install the help packs?

I have seen this issue, if I remember correctly, over the past few weeks
and kept forgetting to ask about this.
