Description lohner 2005-05-31 15:19:23 UTC
Copy/paste operations completely confuse the outline numbering- see attached files.

To reproduce, create the text as shown, add outline numbering and make heading 1
and heading 2 lines, and copy/paste one of the lines as shown.

Comment 3 lohner 2005-05-31 15:42:16 UTC
Results:

- the numbering itself is confused and shows 1.1 twice
- the 'sub3' line does not have the correct formatting (heading 2)
- changing the '1.1 sub2' line to heading1 changes the formatting but not the
numbering

MRU->DVO: when selecting as shown in the screenshot and then copying and
immediately pastinmg over the selection, the format of the paragraph is gone.
You needn't activate an Outline numbering for this.
Comment 5 lohner 2005-05-31 16:41:48 UTC
Could this be left at P2 as requested because of the p2 criteria:
"- Basic functionality is not working correctly" ?  

When editing, this is used a lot, and it makes OOwriter quite difficult to use
when editing large documents where lots of text moves/copies/pastes happen. 
Getting back to correct numbering and formatting after this is difficult.

I would support lohner's request. This issue seriously cripples the outline
numbering functionality. It is an issue likely to be encountered also by the
average user, not only the power user.
Comment 7 postmorbid 2005-07-27 13:59:11 UTC
I also support the request for P2 as it is basic functionality and makes woriing
with larger documents even more complicated.

Is this a duplicate of Issue 47340 - 
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=47340 - which has been solved 
in 680m119 ?
