            Bug ID: 140257
           Summary: No way to set Outline header simply
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.0.2 rc
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dpquinton at zoho.com

Description:
First of all, I do appreciate the 'standard' method of setting paragraph styles
to headers, so that outline levels are attached to them.

But what if my header contains different font sizes and variable formatting?
All the formatting gets lost with a para style added.

Also. what if I don't want to set up a para style? All I want to do is set font
size 14 and Outline level 1, or 2.

OK, the manual method to do what I want to do is to open para settings and
select Outline level. But doing this for every single header is annoying (and I
tried to make a macro to do it with one click but it has no effect).

And there's another bug, select multiple headers and set Outline level and only
the last selected header takes effect!

In my opinion, it would be useful to have an Outline level selector in the
Navigator, that immediately sets the level of selected text (basically a handy
shortcut to using the option in para settings).

Currently there is only a promote/demote function, that has no effect on text
without any level (body text).

Hope this makes sense!
