Summary: Resetting style inheritance introduced by Bug 89826
can cause reverse style inheritance
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.8.0.0 alpha0+ master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]

Description:
Bug 89826 introduced the ability to reset individual style properties within
paragraph styles. However, resetting styles configured with this feature can
cause style inheritance to behave in reverse order. Instead of child styles
inheriting from parent styles, parent styles may inherit properties from their
child styles.
If the dialogue is opened from a grandchild style such as "Heading 1", the Edit
button is clicked, and the dialogue is then closed (regardless of whether
Apply, OK, or Cancel is used), some properties of "Default Paragraph Style" are
overwritten with properties from its child style. After saving and reloading
the document, the incorrect inheritance is actually applied and can be easily
confirmed.
In addition, once this issue occurs, resetting the Default Paragraph Style
using the "Reset to Parent" button and saving the document does not resolve the
problem. After reloading, "Default Paragraph Style" again inherits properties
from its child style. Ctrl+M also has no effect.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter "Paragraph 1" in the first paragraph, "Paragraph 2" in the second
paragraph, and "Paragraph 3" in the third paragraph.
2. Apply "Default Paragraph Style" to the first paragraph, "Heading" to the
second paragraph, and "Heading 1" to the third paragraph.
3. Open the dialogue for "Heading 1" via Sidebar -> Styles -> Paragraph Styles.
4. Go to General -> Contains.
5. Click the Edit button.
6. Close the dialogue by clicking either OK or Cancel.
7. Save the document.
8. Go to Menu -> File -> Reload.
Actual Results:
The first and second paragraphs are displayed with the same formatting.
Expected Results:
The first, second, and third paragraphs should each retain their respective
formatting.
In other words, "Heading" should inherit properties from "Default Paragraph
Style", and "Heading 1" should inherit properties from "Heading", while
"Default Paragraph Style" should not inherit from any other style.
Reproducible: Always
