No you are not abusing lists / paragraph numbering..
I think you need to set up a paragraph style that you will use for the
paragraphs that are numbered.
Place your cursor on of you numbers paragraph.
Choose Format | Styles and Formating
In this box you can see all the predefined paragraph styles.
(and other styles)
There may be one already here that will do what you want,
but there are FAR to many to look though
(in my version there are >100 styles!!!!!
this seems to be rather stupid - how is the user meant to know what they
all do?)
I find it best to create a new paragraph style by using the right most
icon .
Call it, say, mytitles.
Now right click on it and choose modify.
In the Paragraph Style Properties box, choose the /Numbering\ tab.
and select a numbering style:
Try "Numbering 1"
Then under the /Organizer\ tab
choose "Default" or your usual paragraph style which you want to follow
each numbered paragraph.
click [OK]
Now you can just choose "mytitles" from the drop down box on the
for you paragraphs - and they will keep count regardless of what comes
in between.
You can of course create you own numbering style, say mynumbers.
I set the levels to have their own style like this:
1. Top level
a. level 2
i. level three
by using either a preset setting under /outline\ tab
or (usually) manually using the /options\ tab.
When you have types your numbered paragraph, place the cursor at the
start of the line
and press TAB to move the paragraph UP one level, and SHIFT TAB to move
it back one level.
(This is great for agendas and minutes)

Hello
I'm using OOo 1.9.104. Maybe I'm thinking too much (ht/x)ml'ish, but I
was thinking of using a numbered list and blocks of text somehow
corresponding to lists positions... I want to achive something like:
1. Some topic (numbered list position, some list style)
A big block of text (some text style, block "connected with" topic)
2. Next topic...
text...
What I can't do is to make a separate paragraph after a topic in
numbered list, with different style, own first line and other things
that you can do with separate paragraph, but without destroying the
list numbering and allowing list, to continue after that paragraph, or
after N paragraphs. Something like chapters / parts... After adding
those longer blocks of text, I'd like the titles to still act like
normal numbered list - for example rewriting all numbers when I insert
a new 1'st topic.
Am I trying to abuse the lists? Maybe there is an easier / more proper
way?
Thanks in advance.
