[Bug 604482] Re: OOo Draw: changes to one objetc are applied to all objects

2010-07-13 Thread manolo
Dave, thanks for your reply.

You are right: to change the properties to just one object, right click on it 
and chose Line, Area, Text, Position  Size.
So it could convenient to rename the Edit style in Edit default style.

Where should I propose this change?

I don't think 'Edit default style' would work either, since if you were
currently using a different style then it would edit that style, not the
default.

I'm not sure what the right thing to do is, maybe file a bug on
openoffice.org saying the current wording isn't clear?

Dave

Hmm, I've looked at this again, and it's actually more subtle.
To do what you want to do, don't use 'Edit Style' use the 'Line...' option and 
that has the same options for settings the line style.

I think the idea is that there are global 'styles' and that normally you
are using the 'default' style; 'Edit style' edits the style setting
currently in use, and since all your objects are in the default style it
changes them all.

If you go to the Menu option Format-Styles and formatting you can pick
a different style.

Not obvious is it! I could have sympathy with something saying it should
be more obvious but I'm not quite sure how.
