> Description:
> I wanted to change a single page to landscape mode in a Writer document. I

> https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-US/text/swriter/guide/pagestyles.html
> I found several "bugs":
>
> - "To Apply a Page Style" guidance is wrong. Even if you select page xxx
> (>1) and ask to apply the landscape page style, that's the first page of the
> document that gets the modification. Old LOo docs was mentioning this was
> related to some notion of "scope" but did not provide any solution nor
> explanation. The only solution is to create a new page with wanted Page
> Style. FYI, "old doc" is:
> https://help.libreoffice.org/3.4/Writer/
> Changing_Page_Orientation_Landscape_or_Portrait
But the "old doc" is also in the new system:
https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/swriter/guide/pageorientation.html
It does provide solutions for scoping, with breaks ("One Page Long Styles",
"Manually Defined Range of a Page style").
Regarding the insert menu item, yes, unfortunately there are many outdated menu
references, because massive changes were made to the menus without any regard
for help updates. However, updating the help often takes at least ten times the
effort of updating the menu item position in the software itself.
Let's keep this for the menu stuff.
