Thanks.

This works for me now, but I assure you that it did not work before.
It was the first thing that I tried. I'm not crazy, am I, doc?

I need a Promote button for work!

For Impress, "Outline 2" is Level 2 of "Outline 1", and vice-versa. So
demote/promote to move between them.


Yes, that is the question: how to promote / demote in Impress? It does
not work as in Writer.


Sorry I did not grasp the question.  Yes, as I implied earlier, 
hierarchical styles in Impress are /not/ conceptually congruent to any 
of those in Writer - either the Paragraph "Heading x" styles linked to 
Outline Numbering or the Numbering/List styles - and I thought that was 
the source of your question.  However, level promotion/demotion can be 
controlled similarly: use the left-right arrows on the text formatting bar.

 There are three ways to do this.
1) Double click the outline level style you want to use.
2) Place the cursor at the beginning of the line you want to 
promote/demote. Use the Tab key each time you want to demote the outline 
level. Or, use Shift+Tab key combination each time you want to promote 
the outline level.
3) The "Text Formatting" toolbar has a Promote and a Demote arrow. Use 
one of them.


 Observations of Impress vs Writer:
1) This is not used in Writer that I know of.
2) I have used "Tab" and "Shift+Tab" in both Impress and Writer to 
promote/demote.
3) Impress uses the "Text Formatting" toolbar while Writer uses "Bullets 
and Numbering" toolbar to "house" the promote/demote icons.
