I am trying to create headings using a Custom List to define the heading
format. This is not working. It should be trivial.

What I am doing is the create a Custom List using Outline and making the
levels on the left margin - e.g. "Doc Headings2

1.    Heading 1
1.1. Heading 2
1.1.3 Heading 3

The preview in the List style shows exactly what I want.

I then create custom Heading styles, each derived from Heading 1, Heading 2
and Heading 3 - DocHdg 1, Doc Hdg 2 and DocHdg 3

In each case I set the Outline Level to 1, 2, 3 respectively. I then apply
my custom headings and get

1. DocHdg 1
2. DocHdg 2
3. DocHdg 3

This is not what I expected or wanted. In other words the Outline level in
the Paragraph Style is being ignored and level 1 list formatting is being
applied

The Status bar shows the numbering format as "Doc Heading : Level 1 Outline
1" (or 2 or 3 depending on the style chosen) which at least explains why the
behaviour is happening.

Why is the Outline level in the style being ignored and Level 1 being
applied? 
Is this a bug? 

I can see no rationale for the observed behaviour but the way in which I
expected LO to work seems logical and would give great flexibility.
