Description nparlante 2008-05-10 01:34:34 UTC 
In a text document just type "aaa" and style it as Heading 2. Leave the cursor
on that text and bring up View > Bullets and Numbering toolbar.

The 4 promote/demote buttons are disabled, which I think is not correct. Note
that if you bring up the Navigator on the same text, it has promote/demote enabled.

If you enable bullets on the text (say using the button on the toolbar), then
the promote/demote buttons are enabled, however as the Navigator shows, bullet
mode is not a precondition for promote/demote. Aside: I definitely do not
understand the difference in behavior of a paragraph that is in "bullet" mode or
not.

This bug also appears in version 2.4 X11 on the mac.. I suspect it's a minor
thing that's been around for a while.

MRU->OD: the promote/demote buttons should also work on unnumbered heading
paragraphs, because there's no valid reason for the user, why only numbered
headings should be allowed to be shifted via toolbar - Navigator does allow this.

setting keyword "numbering"
