Bottom of page 8 of the LO 3.4 chapter template:
Sample paragraph in OOoTextBody_ListIntro style introducing a numbered
list.
1) Sample numbered list item (OOoNum 123 Start style)
2) Another item in the numbered list (OOoNum 123 Cont.)
And a continuation item (no number), using OOoList_TextBody_L1
3) Another item in the numbered list (OOoNum 123 Cont.)
a) A second-level list item ((using alphabetic “numbers”) —use
Demote
icon and OOoNum abc Start to style.
b) Another second-level list item (OOoNum abc Cont.).
i. Now we have a third-level nested list. It uses lowercase
roman
numerals—use Demote icon and OOoNum iii Start to style.
ii. Another third-level list item
c) A final second-level list item
4) Final item in first level (OOoNum 123 End).
Something to consider replacing it with:
Sample paragraph in OOoTextBodyListIntro style introducing a numbered
list.
1) Sample numbered list item (OOoNum123 style)
2) Another item in the numbered list (OOoNum123)
And a continuation item (no number), using OOoListTextBodyL1
3) Another item in the numbered list (OOoNum123)
a) A second-level list item ((using alphabetic “numbers”) —use
Demote
icon and OOoNumabc to style.
b) Another second-level list item (OOoNumabc).
i. Now we have a third-level nested list. It uses lowercase
roman
numerals—use Demote icon and OOoNumiii to style.
ii. Another third-level list item (OOoNumiii)
c) A final second-level list item
4) Final item in first level (OOoNum123End).
Observations:
1) Spaces, Parentheses and Underlines do not convert properly to ePUB
format.
Spaces are replaced by 20%, beginning Parentheses become 28, and
Underlines
become 5f:
OOoNum 123 Start -> OOoNum20%12320%Start;
OOoTableText(Caption) -> OOoTableText28Caption;
OOoList_TextBody_L2 -> OOoList5fTextBody5fL2
2) The paragraph list styles ending with Start and Cont. are
identical:
OOoNum123Start matches OOoNum123Cont., OOoNumabcStart matches
OOoNumabcCont., and OOoNumiiiStart matches OOoNumiiiCont.We would
have the
same results using OOoNum123, OOoNumabc, and OOoNumiii by giving them
the
equivalent style as their respective style ending with Start. We
still need
to use the styles ending with END, but renaming them to remove the
spaces.
3) I wonder about the need to use the Demote icon and then apply a list
style.
If the levels were set correctly in the styles in the first place,
will the
list items be properly placed?
4) (Personal problems with this one): If level 1 uses 1), level 2 uses
a) and level 3 uses i., what is stopping us from creating a number style
with these three levels? We use to have problems using a numbered list
that included a table such as a Tip/Note/Caution table. That is no
longer the case. I have several examples of this in my writings. Rather
than use the demote or promote icon, I click the beginning of the level
and use the Tab key to demote one level or Shift+Tab to promote one
level.
