------- Additional comments from [email protected] Fri Feb 6 10:20:50 +0000 2009 ------- I'm supporting the feature request, however stated a bit differently: In OOo 3.0 you cannot define a character style that only consists of changing to a specific font: Once you select one font attribute (e.g. font name), other font attributes (e.g. size) are also defined in the style (and not inherited). Practically that means that you cannot define a character style saying "use a specific fixed-pitch font, but keep the current size". If your body text is 12pt and your footnotes are 10pt, you cannot use the same character style in body text and footnotes, because in the footnotes the font would be larger than the rest then. Also when defining paragraph styles, occasionally you want to "revert" to the original, inherited, attribute. That's impossible: If you inherited a font size of 12 pt, and changed that to maybe 10pt, you can change it back to 12pt, but you can never change it back to be inherited. Therefore I'm suggesting a new setting (button) for each single style attribute to make that attribute "inheritable" again, and I'm requesting to split style attributes to the smallest possible level (e.g. let change the font family, font size, font color, etc. be changed (and inherited) independently). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
