KB0302: Why is my heading numbering not working after import from DOCX or ODT?

How do I add or remove automatic heading numbering?

Jutoh tries to reproduce automatic heading numbering as faithfully as possible when importing from DOCX or ODT files, but sometimes this fails and you need to adjust it manually.

The standard automatic heading numbering facility will work for most needs. Headings will be numbered according to the heading level and a specified numbering style, and the number will always be reset to 1 when a higher-level heading is encountered.

However, if you need to do numbering in a non-standard way, you can use sequence fields instead, inserted via the Objects tab in the Formatting Palette. This field will display the current value of a sequence whose category you specify in the field. The category is defined via Project Properties/Fields & Numbering/Edit Sequence Definitions, and will allow you to specify the heading level at which to restart numbering, along with the numbering style.

A sequence field will normally increment the number before displaying it, but if you edit the sequence field properties and set the Formula property value to 1, it will start again from 1 instead.
