Writer - Format - Bullets and Numbering, Numbering type tab, first item. The tooltip is "Number %NUMBERINGSAMPLE" instead of "Number 1), 2), 3)" or whatever is set. It works well on the sidebar. Sidebar code: http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/svx/source/sidebar/nbdtmg.cxx#1356 Dialog code: http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/svx/source/dialog/svxbmpnumvalueset.cxx#431 Create a helper function that replaces %NUMBERINGSAMPLE and use it from both places.
The tooltip is okay in 3.6, so regression in a sense.
adding LibreOffice developer list as CC to unresolved EasyHacks for better visibility. see e.g. http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/minutes-of-ESC-call-td4076214.html for details
I looked into this and in the file: http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/svx/source/dialog/svxbmpnumvalueset.src There is a set of strings for the Bullets and Numbering tooltips: Number 1. 2. 3. ... Uppercase letter A) B) C) Personally, I think the sidebar's current method produces a slightly worse tooltips: Number 1) 2) 3) ... Number A B C I have made a patch that simply replaces "Number %NUMBERSTRING" with the correct "Number 1) 2) 3)" and changed the sidebar to use the same tooltips, but I am not sure if this was originally done for another reason and if the %NUMBERSTRING method of creating the sidebar tooltips should be kept and used instead.
Maybe the current code is a bit overcomplicated. %NUMBERINGSAMPLE is supposed to be replaced by the setting in the Options tab on the Bullets and Numbering dialog. But it does not make much sense... So please go ahead with you patch. Thanks.
