------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Apr 6 16:23:35 +0000 2007 ------- > alonbl, your logic is flawed. >> Where the cursor is is irrelevant... Only the selection is. Well... I wish it was my logic... It seems the logic of every other application... > We're talking about paragraph styles in this issue, so following your logic, > selecting one single word in a paragraph or just positioning the cursor in a > paragraph and applying a paragarph style should do nothing. This surely is not > what the user would expect. You got it totally wrong!!! If the user does not select ANYTHING then: 1. Modifying style modify the style of the whole paragraph. 2. Modifying font/character attribute is modification to future characters. 3. If you like some more examples just tell me... I can write a complete algorithm. If the user SELECT/MARK a region, what we call "selection" 1. Modifying style modify all the paragraphs in the selection. 2. Modify font/character attribute is modification of the exact selection. 3. again... So... Nothing is flawed here... BTW: Please refer to other applications as well. If the user copy/cut selection, no part of the document should be modified. (Edge condition: If the user cut a selection in a middle of paragraph up-to and including end-of-paragraph mark, the remaining paragraph text should remain as a paragraph) If you paste a selection which end with an end-of-paragraph mark, then the selection will be pasted will not affect any other text. (Edge condition: If the selection is paste in a middle of a paragraph, the beggining of the paragraph receives the attributes of the selection). <snip> > And to your list of "unexpected" behaviour: Ask other users and they will tell > you some different story. This tells nothing. > To move a paragraph, you can just use <ctrl>+<alt>+<up/down> Great... So you forbit user to user Copy/Cut/Paste to do the job... This is not a valid approach... Fix the algorithm and you have both ways. > And your 1000 pages counter: Then you probably don't want to move a single > paragraph, but whole chapters, and then you can use the navigator... You know better than users what they do... Well... I must ask you... What if I really have the need to move a paragraph and not a complete chapter...? Is it too much to ask? Instead discuss the issue... You tell me not to use selections... I must say that this is unexpected either... :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
