            Bug ID: 127452
           Summary: First sentence of caption in Index
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: flyamer at gmail.com

Description:
When creating an Index of Tables/Figures etc, would be great to have an option
of adding just the first sentence of the Caption.

Currently it's possible to create it with either just the Category and number,
just the Caption, or both together. But often (at least in scientific
literature) the first sentence of the caption is used as a general description
of the figure, and then the details are provided in later sentences. Having the
whole caption in the index is way too much detail, having no description is
somewhat unhelpful, while having just the first sentence of the caption would
be perfect.

Steps to Reproduce:
Create a file with figures, caption them

Actual Results:
Add Index for Figures. You can create it with either just the Category and
number, just the Caption, or both together.

Expected Results:
An option to just use the first sentence of the caption would be highly
desirable.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
