[Solved] Header + Chapter Title + New Page = wrong header

Post by shane2peru »

Ok, I love putting the chapter titles in automatically to the header. However there is one minor detail. If I hit ctrl + return it gives me a new page, and that new page contains the old chapter name instead of the new chapter name. Is there any way that I can fix this and have the new chapter name go onto that page? Thanks.

Ha ha, never mind, I figured it out, The Chapter header must be the first line, is there any way to make it so that it gives you the next chapter? Like if new chapter starts half way down the page, can the header show that chapter, or only the previous chapter?

Thank you Thank you Thank you! That is a great solution, ok, not as good as being able to do it in OOO with a simple setting, but it is the next best thing! Thanks.
