Bug ID: 125373
Summary: Paragraph style editing and application is not applied
to the paragraph properly.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.2.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: dreapp...@yahoo.com
Description:
Writer problem: For some documents, I can right click in a paragraph, select
"Paragraph → Paragraph ..." menu option, adjust the paragraph style, and it
appears to affect every paragraph with that style (bad behavior). On other
documents, it only affects the paragraph where the cursor is located (expected
behavior). Even when adjusting the indent/margin icon at the top of the page
(in the ruler), all paragraphs were affect by the change rather than just the
one paragraph where the cursor was (bad behavior). And when attempting to set a
paragraph style to a paragraph by double-clicking the style name in the
side-bar selection list, it does NOT apply the style - sometimes, in some
documents. When editing a style (by selecting it in the side-bar with the
"Edit" context menu option), applying a change to a style that is the basis for
other styles sometimes does and sometimes does not affect other styles that are
based on the style. And further, it sometimes does and sometimes does not
affect the paragraphs of the document that have those styles applied to them.
VERY CONFUSING AND INCONSISTENT BEHAVIOR.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Select a paragraph by placing the cursor anywhere in the paragraph.
2.Open the side-bar and select the Styles and Formatting pane.
3.Select the paragraph icon.
4.Double-click any style you want.
5.Observer whether the style is applied to the paragraph or not. (Usually won't
be.)
6.Edit the style (right-click the style name and selected Edit)
7.Change an option like font or spacing.
8.Select Apply or OK.
9.Change should be applied to the paragraph, but probably won't be.
Actual Results:
Changes applied to entire document when only one paragraph selected for
updating. Or changes not applied at all. Inconsistent behavior.
Expected Results:
Changes should be applied, all the time, to only the selected paragraph (when
choosing the "Paragraph → Paragraph..." option within a paragraph), or only
those paragraphs that have the selected style applied (when editing a style
from the side-bar list).
Reproducible: Sometimes
User Profile Reset: Yes
OpenGL enabled: Yes
Additional Info:
There is no Help - About LibreOffice for this that I can find. Especially
dealing with templates (another issue that is also not functioning properly).
