Bug ID: 162113
Summary: Font selection dialog messes up font variant selection
when passing fonts without desired one
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Reproduction instructions:
1. Create a new document (e.g. in Writer)
2. Create a stretch of text in, say, Liberation Serif typeface, Bold
3. Select the emboldened text
4. On the menus, choose Format > Character...
5. Click the typeface name on the Western side of the dialog
6. Start moving down the list of fonts, while keeping an eye on the "Style"
combo-box
7. Get to some font which doesn't have a Bold variant (that will depend on your
system... for me, somehow, it's Linux Biolinum Keyboard)
8. Move back up a few times in the list
Expected Results:
When selecting the no-Bold font, the variant will be Normal or Regular.
When scrolling back up, the variant will be Bold.
Actual Results:
When selecting the no-Bold font, the variant may become Italic, or Bold Italic.
When scrolling back up, the wrong variant persists, as long as you have that
variant for the intermediate typefaces.
In other words, I started with Bold, it became Bold Italic, and if I continued
to scroll up or down it stayed Bold Italic.
This bug is particularly painful for RTL/CTL fonts, which are more likely to be
missing some of the four common variants.
