             Bug #: 47807
           Summary: Style changes not undoing from icon and feature
                    request.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.1 Release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


This report is both a bug(s) and an enhancement request. The basic bug:

If you change a style from from the style editor any change you make can not be
undone by the icons. Steps:

1. Create a blank writer document.
2. Modify a child style (for example Footer) by making any change (for example
change the font to 20pt).
3. Select "Apply".
4. Go to the "Organizer" tab of the dialog and notice that "Contains" field is
blank (THIS IS BUG #1, which I can confirm on WinXP32 right now). As the
"Apply" button is new to LO3.5 I don't think I would call that a regression.
5. Now select "OK" or "Cancel".
6. Modify that child style again (i.e. Footer).
7. Go to the "Organizer" tab. Note that "Contains" field has the change(s) you
made (i.e. 20pt font size).
8. Close the dialog selecting "Cancel"
9. Note that the undo icon does not have record of this change (THIS IS BUG
#2).
10. Go to the "Edit" menu and select "Undo: Change style: Footer". This will
reset the style change that was made, which is correct functionality (fixed
from LO3.4).

If you have a style that has been changed from the parent there does not,
AFAICT, appear to be a method to revert back to parent (other than undo which
does not help you if editing an previously saved document). If I say have in
the past changed the font size of Footer to 20PT and Default is 12PT there is
no way to relink the font size back to the the "Linked with". I can manually
change back to 12PT it does not reestablish the link. So this is the
ENHANCEMENT request (there maybe better implementations but here is one
example):

Next to every items in the "Contains" field have a "x" in a circle that you
could click on it to reset that items link back to the parent in the
organization. For example it would read:

"(x)Western text: 20pt + (x)0.0 inch + (x)Indent left 0.2inch, First line..."
whereever (x) is an "x" in a circle and if you click on it that link is reset
back to parent and item is removed from the list.

An alternative implementation is to program item level resets for each item on
all the tabs (this seems like more coding to me).
