 WinSetView

an easy way to configure default folder views throughout Windows File Explorer. You can apply a preferred view such as Details, List, Tiles or Icons globally, while assigning different settings to specific folder types such as Documents, Pictures, Music, Videos, Downloads, Libraries, OneDrive folders and search results.

The program can customize displayed columns, column order, widths, sorting and grouping for each folder type. It also covers File Open and Save dialogs, connected devices such as phones and many virtual Windows folders that are not affected by File Explorer's standard Apply to Folders option.

LibreOffice Writer Outliner

 Heading 2 style is flagged “keep with next paragraph” so that the heading will never print last on a page with its text starting on the next. This flag is cumulative, i.e. whenever several consecutive paragraphs are so flagged, they form an indivisible block. This is what you get with your sequence of Heading 2 paragraphs. Their number is such that they don’t fit in the remaining page space under their Heading 1 paragraph. The Text Body paragraph following chapter 5 heading was kept with Heading 1 (because Heading 1 is also flagged “keep with next paragraph”) but introduced a “natural” break location for formatting.

You have nothing to do to “fix” the problem. As soon as you write a Text Body between the Heading 2, you make smaller independent blocks and they will flow to their expected location.
