             Bug #: 54335
           Summary: [FORMATTING, EDITING] Typing style name into apply
                    style box changes hierarchy of styles
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.5.6.2 rc
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Steps to reproduce:
1. Open new Writer window, type in any text.
2. Open Styles and formatting window (F11)
3. Change filter to "Hierarchical" (not necessary, but makes bug visible)
4. In "Apply style" input box (on toolbar), type in name of some style that is
both:
  a) not used anywhere else in the document
  b) not on default drop-down list of Apply style box
"Heading 4", "Title", "Quotations" and "Sender" are nice examples
5. Press Enter

Result:
Applied style will be made child of whatever style paragraph has been before.
So, if typed text was "Text body", and you type in "Heading 4" in Apply style
box, then Heading 4 will suddenly be child of Text body.
And since child styles inherit properties from their parents, this can give
quite a headache.

I could reproduce it on:
- LO 3.6.1 on Debian (amd64) and Windows 7 (i686)
- LO 3.5.6 on Arch Linux (i686).

Best regards,
Mirosław Zalewski
