Description r6144 2002-12-21 17:55:45 UTC 
(Oo 643 on linux)

When I apply a numbering style on some ordered lists, the style get applied
correctly, but the number continues between lists with the style (i.e., the
first list 1., 2., 3., the second 4., 5.).  Setting "Line Numbering/Restart at
this paragraph" in Paragraph styles does not work.  The only way to correct it
seems to be: select each list with the style applied, change "start at" value in
Numbers/bullets options dialog, and change it back to 1 (effectively making a
copy of the custom style) --- very cumbersome.

Anyone care clarify this?

This is of course not a bug!!! Numbering styles were designed to
behave like this! Numbering styles and their special behaviour (to
continue the numbering in a different place of the document) were once
implemented because of many users requests.
You can restart the counting of a numbered list formatted with these
numbering styles in the paragraph format. Place the cursor in the
paragraph where the numbering should be restarted, go to
Format.Paragraph.Numbering and click the desired option in the group
"Numbering".
Note: due to conceptional limitations this feature is only available
via Format.paragraph, not in the paragraph style.
