Without using m$, it would seem that the outliner feature may be one reason for document instability; how does moving of nodes cope with internal cross-references and bibliographic references for example? How stable is outliner functionality with images? The options to proceed: Change your behaviour and adapt to use LO writer styles Carry out benefit-cost analysis of you using m$ compared to learning programming to implement outline behaviour in LO, perhaps as an LO extension. In this case you should contact the LO programmers and others for further help to build such an extension. Use a text editor, then import to LO writer and apply styles accordingly (could use find & replace function) -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
