Open each of > the other documents and copy these styles (Styles -> Load Styles -> From > File ...) from the first document. > > Result: Worked for me except that the other documents did not show chapter > numbers. [The UI is confusing :( ] How it works: Open Tool > Outline (LO 6: Chapter) numbering. Make all your settings. Click on button "Format". It has the item "Save as". Enter a name for this chapter numbering. You will get a file "chapter.cfg" in your user directory in subfolder "config". For the other document go to Open Tool > Outline numbering as click on button "Format". You should see an item with your naming. Click it. That will transfer the outline-level-style to the other document. I don't know, why this had been labeled "Format". The file chapter.cfg is transportable, in case you have two different user directories. The file chapter.cfg contains the node "<text:outline-style>" which is located in the folder styles.xml in a packed odt document file. It does not contain, which paragraph style is set on each level. I don't know, whether these steps can be done by a macro.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
