I just opened a new document inserted a page that, using the method
described is landscape, then wanted to change the next page back to test
this out, so in terms of page style what ever comes with libreoffice 7.

Ok just had a quick look again, so page 1 is the default portrait,
page2 of my test document is now landscape and page 3 is back to
portrait, however I had to switch it to *default*.
So from a user perspective, if users are looking for portrait as they
would find in say a print dialogue or even in the
format --> page --> page tab
then surely the dialog under
insert --> more breaks --> manual breaks, could easily say portrait in
the list.
It may just make it easier, perhaps also in this have a option that
takes you to the
format --> page dialogue.
May just help users out a little.
I feel am pretty good on things like this, so in a way (as with my
adding things up in a table query) I tend to sometimes put a user with
no knowledge / experience hat on and try and take that viewpoint.
I know that some users need things set out in such a way it is just
obvious, so while I would normally go experimenting and looking round,
they don't or won't do that, so they either give up or are scared if
the press the wrong button they will mess things up.
Just a few ideas
Now that I know how to do this, I will make a video to illustrate as it
is usually more useful than written explanations.
