Bug ID: 161624
Summary: indenting and margin setting affect whole document in
LibreOffice Writer
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
LibreOffice Writer documentation suggests ways to indent a single paragraph:
using the paragraph dialog box under the Format drop-down menu; using the ruler
settings. These affect the entire document, whether or not the desired
paragraph is selected [highlighted].
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place cursor on desired paragraph, whether the paragraph is not highlighted
at all or completely highlighted.
2. Use any specified method of indenting the left margin of the paragraph:
Format/Paragraph or the horizontal ruler at the top of the page.
Actual Results:
The entire document's left margin moves per user action on the one paragraph.
Expected Results:
The left margin of the paragraph indicated by cursor or highlighting should
move per user command. The rest of the document's left margin should be
unchanged.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:

current paragraph or for all selected paragraphs. You can also set indents
using the ruler.
Right-click a paragraph and choose Paragraph - Edit Style - Indents & Spacing
tab to change the indents for all paragraphs that have the same Paragraph
Style.
