styles. Just for once I found that I needed to write two documents at the
same day and I almost immediately ran into problems:
First of all, I am not happy with those predefined styles, such as
"standard", "brödtext", "överskrift 1", "överskrift 2", "citat" etc.
Yes, I
use the Swedish version of OpenOffice.org 1.1.5. Unlike OpenOffice.org
2.0,
I can't switch to English and back again by just selecting something
in the
Tools -> Options dialog, so I really don't know what those styles are
called
in English, but really, does it really matter..?
I guess that "standard" is named "standard" or "default" in English
anyway.
Since I am not happy with most of the settings I found it to be
easiest to
just change the predefined styles to what I need them to be like and then
just continue typing. So I wrote my document and saved it. Now I
wanted to
write the next one, using the styles I've just modified. I was very
surprised when I found that the modified styles wasn't modified any
longer.
So how do I make OpenOffice.org 1.1.5 to remember that I modified its
predefined styles?
I think the short answer is to modify your styles and then save the
document as a template. If you want them to be the defaults that you
always get when you start a new document, then make your new template
the default template.
The setting of a template file as the default is done in Files ->
Templates -> Organize. Select your template and then in the "Commands"
drop list choose "Set As Default Template".
