Very good idea! I thought a little bit about this issue and found only minor problems, so let's see what it "costs" and what might get better. What might be better: You're right that it fits much better in the Organizer tab - you directly see the change in the textual description of the derived style. And, it might help to explain what it actually does. I've searched for some dialogs and found these two ones that behave similarly (in Germany, sorry): "Standard" https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/h0aC8YbHwnzDsFKEXhlDIA?feat=directlink "Zurücksetzen" https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/fBJb67-kV-EjEwvVuYd6Lw?feat=directlink The downsides I can think of: * The additional button made it easier to distinguish between the Paragraph and Paragraph Styles Dialog * The button below all tabs makes clear that pressing it might affect all dialog elements (which by the way is not true for the today's buttons in this dialog) * It might be easier for users to find this functionality (well, its there all the time) * Changes in this dialog affects a lot of documentation, so we have to be careful with any changes here My proposal: Let's collect the improvements proposals for this dialog (along with the generic button stuff by Astron.
