Thanks, that works, but your resolution is a workaround, and this workaround is
not documented in the LO Help system, so at least this workaround should get
documented there.
And let me please add that if LO Writer is set to German, then the user
explicitly has the choice to set the chapter numbering to "1. , 2. , 3." (which
corresponds to the configuration method "1st, 2nd, 3rd" in the English version
of LO Writer) - i.e. the single (!) dot between the numbers is explicitly
mentioned in the "1. , 2. , 3." configuration method (see attached 2nd
screenshot).
So at least for a user who runs LO Writer in German it appears as a bug that
he/she can define a chapter numbering method which implies that the numbering
should look like "1.2.3. <chapter title>", while in fact this method results in
"1..2..3. <chapter title>", if he/she does not know about your workaround.
Otherwise the user is confused.
Can we assign this bug issue to the documentation team?</pre>
