Bug ID: 159972
Summary: LO 7.6 Creates Duplicate / Unwanted Paragraph Direct
Formatting
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.4.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
This issue affects all LO 7.6 Writer Paragraph styles associated with a List
style.
The Paragraph Direct Formatting that is created, is a duplicate of the List
style already specified in the Paragraph style e.g 'Numbering ABC' and can be
observed via Style Manager. It causes problems when applying another style to
affected text e.g. applying 'Body Text' changes the base Paragraph style but
the List style remains. It breaks the concept of using Styles to quickly alter
document formatting.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Writer LO 7.6 create a document with samples of text with a couple of
Paragraph styles associated with different List Styles via:
Edit style > Outline & List tab > Apply List Style= e.g. 'Numbering ABC'
2. Repeat in LO 7.3
3. Compare the results using Style Inspector.
Actual Results:
- Writer documents created, edited and viewed under LO 7.3 are OK with no
Paragraph Direct Formatting.
- A previously 'good' LO 7.3 document is 'corrupted' if opened then saved in LO
7.6 i.e. when reopened in LO 7.3 Paragraph Direct Formatting duplication is now
present and embedded.
- Documents opened under LO 7.6 exhibit duplicate Paragraph Direct Formatting
for all Paragraph styles associated with a List style.
- New Paragraph styles created in LO 7.6 are OK until the document is
saved/reloaded at which point the duplication is embedded.
- Paragraph styles used in 'Heading Numbering' e.g Heading 1, 2, 3 etc. do not
exhibit this problem.
- I'm told LO 7.5 is also OK but haven't been able to verify this.
Expected Results:
LO 7.6 Paragraph Styles created as described should not contain any Paragraph
Direct Formatting.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
I've created two demo documents to illustrate the issue, but it is easily
replicated from scratch.
