oo3 Pro final: detail cultivation

[Jim Harrison]

I think the issue is that there doesn't appear to be a way to start
legal-style numbering at a particular topic in the outline. You can turn off
numbering for the other topics, but the numbered topic still retains the
overall numbering scheme (ie, topic 2 is still topic 2, and it's children
are 2.1, etc., even if numbering is turned off for the first topic and you'd
just like it to be a non-numbered textual element).

Although this wouldn't have occurred to me as a major issue--in fact, I had
to choose another editor for a document recently because the document had
mostly non-numbered headings and paragraphs but did require an embedded
legal-numbered outline. Other than that, the document might have been better
developed in OO.
