@FL: With a simple click you copy both: characters formatting ("hard") and the
default paragraph style ("soft").
The problem is that the "default *paragraph* style" (which you can modify over
the Stylist or in the context menu: "Edit paragraph style...") already contains
*character* attributes.
So painting characters from a hard formatted paragraph to another hard formatted
paragraph will paint the selection correctly but surprisingly change the rest of
the paragraph.
Example:
- 2 paragraphs from style "Default" (Times New Roman, 12pts)
- format them both *hard* in Arial, 18pts
- format one word in para1 as italic, bold
Now you want to copy the italic bold from para1 to another word in para2:
- select the word, paintbrush, apply to another word in para2
Expected: the target word is now Arial 18, bold italic and accessory, the
attributes of para2 didn't change.
Actual result: the target word is now Arial 18 and the other words of para2 are
reset to Times New Roman, 12pts.
This is conform to the specification (simple click pastes character attributes
AND paragraph attributes) but it is not intuitive! The character attributes
defined in the paragraph style collide with the hard character attributes.
We need to rethink the spec...
