------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Sep 1 05:56:31 -0700 2005 ------- Well ... reading the specs at the link you gave, it seems the tool does not conform to the specs; in fact: Nr 2 ************* User Scenarios A user formats some text exactly the way he wants to format other parts of his text. ************* let's say the user wants to format some text exactly the way of the paragrah above ...... and the paragrah above is in default format style Nr 3 ************* Goals OpenOffice.org 2.0 will get a “Format Paintbrush” that will combine the idea of a tool to copy and paste applied (hard-)formatting of text and objects to other text and objects. It will also be aligned to the already existing copy and paste functionality of soft-formatting from the Stylist. ************* a text object is always a text objet, whatever is its fomatting style; its method shouldn't be limited by the particular color, font, size ... of it's formatting style, considering that althought the are the default ones, they are all legal state for the object. If we can copy and paste a text whatever is its formatting, we should be able to copy and paste its format with the format paintbrush Nr 6.2 ************* Workflow – Copy Formatting Scenario 2 – A text-selection is done (in Writer) Pressing the icon will copy the attributes of the last character within the selection made and the attributes of the paragraph this character is located. ************* please note that if we select a line of text in default formatting, the paintbrush button IS ACTIVATED and stay selected!! And this is the normal behaviour the user expects... Nr 6.3 Workflow – Apply Formatting ************* Scenario 2 – The cursor makes a text-selection (in Writer) The attributes of the source' character are applied to the selection only. And the attributes of the source' paragraph are applied to the whole paragraph the selection resides in. In case a modifier (see Keyboard shortcuts section below) is pressed while clicking with the mouse into the target area only the text attributes will be applied but the paragraph attributes will be dropped. ************** the attributes of the source character should be applied to the selection. No difference if the are the default ones.... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
