Re: [libreoffice-users] Numbering/Outline levels in Writer

Yes, got caught again by that damn list problem.

Well, I would say that earlier version of MS Office (i.e. any time up to
2003) had very usable styles, but maybe that is a matter of taste. I had to
do the very thing the original questioner asked about in MS Office 2010 a
couple of weeks ago and it was a lot harder than in LibreOffice. But the
general answer for any modern office suite is to do it with styles.

Regards,
