Actually I think I understand. I'm just not doing a very good job of
communicating what I think and want. Sorry about that!
I personally think that to be consistent with what is described in the AT-SPI
docs, if a user explicitly changes an attribute (e.g. by pressing Control B) the
changed attribute is not a default attribute. Thus when using the templates that
ship with OOo, I would expect weight:600 to be a default attribute of the
Heading 1 paragraph style. I don't make Heading 1's bold. They just come that
way. I would expect weight:400 to be a default attribute of the Default
paragraph style. Default text isn't bold. If I don't want my Heading 1 to be
bold and change my Heading 1 text by toggling bold off, I would still expect
weight:600 to be the default attribute and weight:400 to be a character
attribute associated with each and every character I modified. Similarly, if I
wanted all of the characters in a given paragraph that uses Default as its style
to be bold and toggled that on, I would expect the default attribute to continue
to include weight:400 and the characters to have the attribute weight:600. In
my mind, if I change it it's no longer default. But that's just me....
Regarding your explanation, I *believe* I understood that as well. My
suggestion is this: Assuming you all do not agree with my suggested definition
of "default attribute", :-) I would suggest that perhaps the value *should* be
revised when new characters are inserted. The example in my report is one in
which bold is not normally on, but had to be explicitly turned on by the user,
and it only applies to a few characters in the paragraph. In that instance, in
my mind, bold is not a default attribute for that paragraph. OOo Writer,
however, reports that it is. For that matter, if the first paragraph consists
of some bold text, all subsequent paragraphs I type seem to report weight:600 as
a default attribute even though they are completely devoid of bold text. Taking
it a step further, if the first paragraph is plain text, the second paragraph is
bold text, and the third paragraph is plain text, the first paragraph will
report a default weight of 400, the second will report a default weight of 600,
and the third will also report a default weight of 600. To me, at the very
least, the first and third paragraphs should report the same weight as the
default because formatting-wise they are the same.
