--- Comment #3 from Eyal Rozenberg <eyalr...@gmx.com> --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #1) > Speaking as a technical layman, if you select an object you don't know the > content. I'm not sure what exactly you mean. Why do I need to "know the content" to set its style? > Might be text but could be anything else too. > Meaning you cannot > apply text formatting neither to a single textbox or frame nor to > multi-selection. We're talking about objects which all have text areas. If you were to make this argument about the case of objects which cannot have any text, that's a different story - although even then, I should be able to do some DF'ing, and have it apply to whichever selected objects it can apply to. > And I believe the way to go is to make drawing styles available in Writer > and Calc. That is not an alternative to allowing direct formatting, although that's important to do as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
