That is not explicitly mentioned in 19.844.4 <text:h>. There is the sentence “Headings without a level attribute are assumed to be at level 1.” instead. But there cannot be any heading without a level attribute. Or do I misunderstand the schema? yes, that sentence seems superfluous since the attribute is mandatory. although, maybe it wasn't mandatory in an older version? no, in 1.0 it's mandatory too. > Section 19.498.2 contains the sentence > “outline style - The outline style as a list style can be referenced by the style:list-style-name attribute.” > Should this text be copied here?

Perhaps someone has got additional applications > on Linux or Mac and can make screen shots from them? i think the biggest problem with these test documents is that they contain a single text:list element and no text:style-name attribute and multiple items each containing a paragraph with a style that wants a different list style. i expect there should be only one list style per list, so which one to choose? > Problem A > Take a simple paragraph inside a list. Consider the case, that no style is specified on the list elements themselves and the paragraph style has a style:list-style-name attribute with empty value. Applying section “5.3.2 Default List Style” I get the conclusion: > First bullet item there does not apply, because no list in the parent lists has specified a list style, otherwise the style:list-style-name would not be used, see second sentence in 19.496. > Second bullet item does not apply, because the style:list-style-name attribute exists but has an empty value. Therefore no list-style is specified, that can be used. > So third bullet item is used, which means, that an implementation-dependent default is used. > But is that the intention for allowing an empty value for the style:list-style-name attribute? i agree with your analysis and think the handling of this situation is fine. > Problem B > Take a heading inside a list. Consider the case, that no style is specified on the list elements themselves and the headings paragraph style has a style:list-style-name attribute with empty value. Section 16.34<text:outline-style> has the sentence, > “An outline style is a list style that is applied to all headings within a text document where the heading's paragraph style does not define a list style to use itself.” > Does the wording “does not define a list style to use itself” includes the case that the style:list-style-name attribute exists, but has an empty value? If not, then problem A applies. Here too, it is not clear, what the intention was, to allow an empty value for the style:list-style-name attribute. oh, that's a difficult one! given the answer to A, and the reasonable assumption that an implementation-defined default does not qualify as "defining a list style to use itself", i get the idea that the outline style is used in this case. on the other hand, the heading is in a list, which gets its own sequence of numbers, hence the numbering of the heading is taken from the list. i think i'd prefer if we are consistent about taking both the number and the format (and the level) from the same source, i.e. either both from the list/list style, or both from the heading/outline style. > Problem C > If a list does not specify a list style at all and the paragraphs inside the list, do not have a style:list-style-name attribute in their paragraph styles, then from section 5.3.2 an implementation-dependent default list style is used. On the other hand from section 16.34 we get, that if the headings paragraph style does not define a list style, then the outline style is used. So what style is used for a heading inside a list, in case the style:list-style-name attribute does not exist in the paragraph style of the heading? Is it the default list style or the outline style? this is basically the same as B. > Problem D > How do indents definied in the paragraph style interact with indents definied in the list style? i'm afraid that by now i'm too hungry to investigate this question :) -- Michael Stahl Software Engineer Platform Engineering - Desktop Team Red Hat Better technology.
