Description andreasb 2004-12-21 19:02:11 UTC 
I would like to see a more flexible way to position the outline number using the
outline numbering dialog. My goal was to position the outline number right
beside the chapter name. So I searched for a way to get the chapter name on the
left side and the outline number on the right side of the same line. But the
outline numbering dialog only allows the outline number left beside the chpater
name. So I had to take an ugly hack -- using white font color and the smallest
font size for the first level heading. The "real" chapter name and number I
imitated with fields below the "real" heading. I tried several other suggestions
but no one worked satisfactorily. So an outline numbering enhacement in further
versions of OOo would be helpful.

reassigned to "requirements".
Comment 2 lohmaier 2004-12-24 23:45:46 UTC 
as a workaround, you can use right-to-left textdirection for the heading
(activate support for CTL in Tools|Options->language settings)

Thanks for the hint. Using CTL is a great way to solve this problem. It works
fantastic for me.
