--- Comment #5 from Octavio Alvarez <alvar...@alvarezp.ods.org> --- Joel, can you provide references to the discussion of the (In reply to Joel Madero from comment #0) > There are essentially two ways that a user might apply a style: > 1. Select the style in advance, then start typing; By 'in advance', are you talking about the application of a style in an empty paragraph? > For #2 (have text already, then apply style) > *Suggest that a dialog appears if there is any direct formatting applied in > the selected text (i.e. if a word is italicized, bolded, etc…) that says > something like “do you want the style to overwrite any direct formatting in > the selected text” > **This can be similar to the dialog that appears in Calc if you copy/paste > into a cell that already has a value > **This should have an option to say “do this every time.” This forces the user to choose one or the other. If the user is unsure and does not click 'do this every time', the user will be interrupted on each style application until he makes up his mind. If the devs opt for going with this option, I suggest to use the word 'remove' instead of 'overwrite'. > This should avoid breaking the workflow of people used to the current > behavior, and add the ability to make it more intuitive for those who find > the current process counter-intuitive (those who want a style to be applied > uniformly every time). > Talking on QA channel and on user mailing list makes > me think that the current situation is counter-intuitive to a fair number of > people.
