------- Additional comments from zak_mckrac...@openoffice.org Mon Jun 29 19:32:23 +0000 2009 ------- I see two problems: Sometimes I _do_ want to change a document's style regardless of what it was equal to once. Sometimes I want to send a document around, and I want it to look on other people's computers like it did on mine. A solution to the problem: Linked styles. When copying styles via the template organizer (from a template or another document, regardless), you can choose to either copy or link them. If you link them, a copy is still made, but only for emergency, should the original file be amiss. In the latter case, a clear indicator must be present so the user knows something is missing. That'd make it much easier working with global documents and several sub- documents, if at one point the styles need to be changed. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
