Heading problem

Have tens of topics. In the every topics are usual headings, everytime started from the level1 - like:

Heading 1

heading 2

etc.

Now, need make one BigTopic with %TOC%, for printing and/or for OpenOffice Export like:

%INCLUDE{"TopicA"}%
%INCLUDE{"TopicB"}%
%INCLUDE{"TopicB"}%

• With the simple include I will get result like bellow in "standard" TAB.
• But, I want achieve something like in "wanted" TAB.

Ofc, i dont want re-edit every topic to achieve correct heading nesting. About the nesting want decide when making a BigTopic. Therefore, I make one small Plugin what i can use in form

%STARTHSHIFT{0}% %INCLUDE{"TopicA"}% %ENDHSHIFT%
%STARTHSHIFT{2}% %INCLUDE{"TopicB"}% %ENDHSHIFT%
%STARTHSHIFT{2}% %INCLUDE{"TopicC"}% %ENDHSHIFT%
%STARTHSHIFT{0}% %INCLUDE{"TopicD"}% %ENDHSHIFT%

The argument tell how many levels need shift. (0-do nothing, 1-will increase the number of '+' by one, so transform ---+ to ---++ and so on...)

Its working somewhat, but using commonTagsHandler (what should be avoidable) and Foswiki::Func::expandCommonVariables, so break some things.

• What is the solution?
• Is possible achieve this with the current foswiki? (without need of re-edit every topic)
• if need a plugin, how to avoid using commonTagsHandler (START-STOP thing?)

you mean like the

level="1"    Override the root heading level to the specified number functionality (seemingly for perl doc only) described on VarINCLUDE ?

i seriously thought we'd implemented this years ago.

its needed anywhere that we have transclusion going on - INCLUDE, SEARCH, FORMAT, TMPL?

see http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/AllowIncludeOrSearchToChangeHeaderLevels (so make/update a feature req at AllowIncludeOrSearchToChangeHeaderLevels? please.

It'd be nice if this code could be done without re-re-regexing but that may require the TOM dream :/

additionally, it would be even better if we can use that opportunity to normalise - if an output has h2's but no h1's, then move them all up - that kind of thing.
