Bug ID: 94886 Summary: Make "bold" and "italics" character style configurable Product: LibreOffice Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: d1...@phx.li Some fonts do not just have regular, bold and italics, but also light, semibold and light italics typefaces, for instance Gill Sans. The problem: LO's "bold" and "italics" cannot be changed to use the "semibold" and "light italic" typefaces to match the font thickness in use (which then means some manual or macro solution to fix the deficiency). To set the "normal" font is easy to do in the document style management, but I propose to also make the configuration for "bold" and "italic" available as character styles so that they can be configured to whatever the user needs, making it thus also possible to re-assign "bold" and "italic" to entirely different fonts and typefaces in case an author so desires. Naturally this setting also needs an "off" switch so LO behaves as before, but doing it this way fixes a problem yet stays consistent within the user interface and thus does not require any new intructions of handling of legacy issues. Thanks a lot in advance if you could do this - it's been a rather long outstanding issue but I never felt before I could offer a suitable way to do this without it making disruptive, and I exactly like LO because its UI is stable and devoid of gimmicks :). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
