------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jun 3 16:40:05 -0700 2005 ------- >If you search for "italics" and the search matches text with >subscipt and superscript, what should OOo do if you specify no >format as replace? -> How can OOo know that you only want >to remove the italics? If what you search for is "italics", OOo should be able to sort out that "italics" is what should be removed, and not "all direct formatting". Also, it should be able to remove this formatting command without replacing it with anything else, other than the value inherited from the higher level, i.e. the paragraph level. I understand from the issue 31638 (turning on and off italics leaves behind traces of the formatting), that this may be a problem, but if it is a problem which sets obstacles to the feature that ftack points out, it is a problem which should be solved... The issue is essential if one has to clean up documents that are produced by writers who don't use styles but only direct formatting. The scenario deescribed by ftack is precise, as far as I understand: I haven't found a way to remove only some, selected, formatting. After trying for an hour or two, playing around with the search&replace, I gave up, opened the document in Word, and had it cleaned up in two minutes. So the Format-Selection has to offer an item "use default for italics" or something similar. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
