------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jan 19 02:01:40 -0800 2006 ------- FL: Thank you for your detailed explanations and I understand your need and I am sure that this will work for you and people with detailed understanding of word processing. But our experience with normal users shows us that those do not know anything about those invisible attributes and their impact on the document formatting. That is why this attribute will not be copied to the next paragraph on pressing return. Let me give you an example seen many times in usability tests we have made: People don't know about spacing before and below a paragraph and have no clue how to get rid of these spaces, as they format using blank paragraphs to add a spacing between paragraphs. This behavioral pattern did become a problem in OOo 1.1 where numberings started over (beginning with 1.) again if the numbering has been turned on after inserting an empty paragraph to add a spacing between two paragraph of a numbering. We also had similar issues were those invisible attributes have been extended all over the document i.e. the end mark of a document's index where many people did extend the index on the last paragraph of the index to write their document and so the non visible attribute got copied across the whole document. On updating the index, the whole document content was gone. This is the reason why we are not planning to change this behavior. I propose to introduce a visual indicator in front of the paragraph, showing up when the nonprinting characters are turned on and the paragraph has the keep with next attribute. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
