I have been reviewing the Writer chapter, Chapter 4 of the Getting
Started Guide, and have a suggestion.
For me, two of the more confusing issues with LibreOffice (and judging
from the forums, others as well) has been understanding how styles work
together—especially paragraph and character styles—and how to clear
formatting.
Common problems are understanding what causes text to be formatted as it
is and how to change it to what is wanted.
Information related to these issues is in various places but can be
missed. I would like to suggest that there be a section toward the
beginning of the style section that explains the overall logic of styles
as well as strategies for removing style-based formatting and direct
formatting.
I would like to look at Chapter 3, the chapter that presumably
introduces styles, to see if such a section has been added, but I don’t
see that chapter.
If the kind of section I am suggesting is not already available, I could
try to write a draft. However, I am not sure if I completely understand
it yet, so could use some help. Also, I think some good graphics would help.
Are others interested in this?
