Let me show you what exact Outline Numbering I want using the example below:

Level   Example(desired output) Associated Paragraph Style
1        Chapter 3:             Chapter
2         3.2-                  Heading 1
3          3.2.5-               Heading 2
4           3.2.5.9-            Heading 3
5            (b)                none
6             Fig (3.12)        Fig Caption
7              (3.27)           Formula
8               Table (3.20)    Table Caption

As you can see in the example above the '3' in "Fig (3.12)", "(3.27)"
and "Table (3.20)" is the chapter number at level 1.

How can I achieve my desired output I mentioned in first example using
LO Writer?



You do the outline numbering with Chapter, Heading 1 , ... with normal outline numbering. You need to define a paragraph style "Chapter" and alter the assignment between paragraph style and level in the outline numbering dialog.

LibreOffice uses the field "Number range" for numbering in captions. Therefore these are not at all in the outline numbering. But when you insert a caption to a table or figure, you will see a Options-buttons. There you can tell LibreOffice to count newly for each chapter.

The "caption" item in the context menu is only a shortened way to set a caption. You can also write your own caption inserting the field "Number range" manually. That will be the right way for numbering formulas.

The Autotext FN puts the formula and the formula-numbering in a table. I would not use it, because it is not easily possible to move paragraphs, when the movement crosses a table. I would position the formula number using a tab. For display formulas in own paragraphs you can define a suitable paragraph style.

The captions are normal paragraphs, so you can add the needed brackets manually as you need them.

Each "Number range" will generate its own index later on.

The numbers of the outline can be inserted using fields.

Do not try to mimic the way things are done in Word, the concepts are different. But you can be sure, that you can write well formatted academic papers in LibreOffice.
