Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 18981
Automatic section endnote style changes
Last modified: 2020-01-03 22:21:07 UTC
I am using Openoffice 1.0.2 on Mandrake 9.1. RPM build. I have found an apparent bug when creating section specific endnotes. It should be able to be duplicated by: Create a section - Under footnotes/endnotes select "collect at end of text" , "restart numbering" and "custom numbering". Remember what you select. Insert an Endnote - Select insert-footnote , then check endnote, and automatic The inserted note will not be of the same type as you requested in custom numbering. eg check "1,2,3" in custom numbering box, results in the "A,B,C" style being inserted, so you have to peck around trying to find the style that maps to the desired one. This bug does not seem to appear for footnotes and only for section specific styles.
jw: reassigned to jw can you please install the latest version of OOo and look if the error still occurs?
Installed 1.1RC4 on Mandrake9.1 (at great risk to my in-progress thesis!) Followed procedure described in original issue, same problem results. Though "1,2,3" now maps top "a,b,c" apparently. I'm guessing you were unable to duplicate this, are there overall endnote formatting options that are partially overwritting this possibly?
no i did not reproduce this until now, because by all this issues comming in, we can not reproduce all. so we are preselecting a littlebit by asking you to confirm this issue with the latest office release. if the issue does not occur in the latest version the reported issue was a known issue and had been fixed and you can work an. if you could reproduce this i will test it here to look if we can confirm it. why are you thinking installing OOo1.1RC4 is a risk? it does not touch anything in your system and is even more stable than OOo 1.0.3.1 i could reproduce this issue in my system reassigned to fme set target to OOo2.0 set status to new set os to all set version to OOo1.1RC4
