Bug ID: 149878
Summary: COPY & PASTE STYLES from document to document
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer

hi,
- - - there are two suggestions in this post, the first one is just the
original version of the (simple) idea, the actual suggestion starts at [THE
actual suggestion] - - -
::PRE::
What I'm going to suggest lacks one intermediate stage, namely, to see the
styles of a document in such way as in Firefox's "inspect" view, where each
style's definition is displayed, including the definition's location, the
document and the exact line where it is...
Anyway, looking at the pace at which the STYLES EVOLUTION is happening, we're
practically there already... or will be the next moment...
ONE great possibility could be to be able to export a style to a template...
this could happen in the popup window, in a new tab...
it would mean, self-evidently, that the selected style, say, a "heading 1"
could be exported to XY template...
which would also make an overwrite dialog necessary...
the whole point is control over the styles...
a style has several directives... several settings in several tabs...
it's easy to make a mistake when attempting to "copy paste" a style to another
template... one thing you forget, one little checkbox, and the document will
look different, but only slightly, which means you might not notice it...
:: / PRE ::

[THE actual suggestion]
:::::
AN EASIER OPTION:
copy paste!!
in the style's "modify" popup window, in the organizer there could be a
button: "copy this style definition"...
and.. accordingly, a "paste style definition from style clipboard", too...
this could be a pretty civilized method...
easy to use, and hopefully not crazy complex to implement...
