[libreoffice-users] A Writer question about cross references

Create a number list, like the following:
1. This is the first step for doing something.
2. This is probably the second step for doing it.
3. This is obviously the third step.

Now I want to mention step 2 in step 4:
1. This is the first step for doing something.
2. This is probably the second step for doing it.
3. This is obviously the third step.
4. Do step 2 again, but backwards this time.

Okay, so what about if I want to add a step between step 1 and step 2?
1. This is the first step for doing something.
2. Here's an extra step that was not there from start.
3. This is probably the second step for doing it.
4. This is obviously the third step.
5. Do step 2 again, but backwards this time.

Okay, now I need to change step 5:
1. This is the first step for doing something.
2. Here's an extra step that was not there from start.
3. This is probably the second step for doing it.
4. This is obviously the third step.
5. Do step 3 again, but backwards this time.
(the ”2” was replaced by ”3” in the last line)

So how to make this happen automatically? After a bit of searching I
found Insert Cross reference. However there is one problem. This is
what I get when using it:
1. This is the first step for doing something.
2. Here's an extra step that was not there from start.
3. This is probably the second step for doing it.
4. This is obviously the third step.
5. Do step 3. again, but backwards this time.

As you can see, there is a point after the ”3” in step 5. How can I
get rid of it, without losing the points after each step? I mean, I
can easily do this:
1 This is the first step for doing something.
2 Here's an extra step that was not there from start.
3 This is probably the second step for doing it.
4 This is obviously the third step.
5 Do step 3 again, but backwards this time.

But I want the dots after each step number:
1. This is the first step for doing something.
2. Here's an extra step that was not there from start.
3. This is probably the second step for doing it.
4. This is obviously the third step.
5. Do step 3 again, but backwards this time.


Is this possible? Isn't the current behaviour actually a bug?

I have LibreOffice 3.3.4, so maybe things changed since then, I don't know.
When inserting a cross reference I do it the obvious way, I think:
Insert → Cross reference → Numbered paragraphs → Select the
appropriate line → Select Number → OK

Result: ”2.”
Expected result: ”2”

If I wanted a dot, I could always enter it after the ”2”…



Kind regards
