## Format

If a field is displaying a date, time or number, then Format is used to customize the appearance of the date, time, or number. Common formats are shown in the Format window, or click "Additional formats" to define a custom format.

When you click "Additional formats", the Number Format dialog opens, where you can define a custom format.

For type Heading, choose the format Heading number to display the heading number with the separator specified in Tools - Heading Numbering.

Choose Heading number without separator to display the heading number alone without the separator.

If the selected heading is not numbered, then the field is left blank.

For the HTML export and import of date and time fields, special LibreOffice formats are used.

### Fixed content

Inserts the field as static content, that is, the field cannot be updated.

### Up to level

Use this option with type Heading to specify which heading to display. The displayed heading is the first one before the field, whose outline level is equal to or less than the specified value.

### Offset

Enter the offset value that you want to apply to a page number field, for example "+1".

With an Offset value of 1, the field will display a number that is 1 more than the current page number, but only if a page with that number exists. On the last page of the document, this same field will be empty.

If you want to change the actual page number and not the displayed number, do not use the Offset value. To change page numbers, read the Page Numbers guide.

### Offset in days/minutes

Enter the offset that you want to apply to a date or time field.
