After thinking about this overnight, I would like to see a dialog box that reveals the details of the formatting at the cursor location.

Otehr than each style that is currently being used is displayed in its

is currently available?

SNIP!

I feel that OOo has the ability with the inclusion of a styles indicator box that could display the properties for the particular point that the cursor is at. Add in the ability to go to the individual styles used at that point, would provide almost the same functionabilty as Reveal Codes within the framework of styles.

And just how does that differ from what is currently available from
within OOo, and _not_ installing the "Reveal Codes" macro?

There seems to be two main improvements that have been suggested that does make sense with this thread:

1. Ability to see a structured layout of applied styles and hard formatting, preferably as different types. 2. Ability to move the cursor while the layout it displayed to see how it changes under the cursor.

I think both of these have virtue in OOo and do not have to be done by reveal codes of any sort.

Does this sum up what RC people would like to see implemented in OOo?
