Which fine - deeper investigation - however I still see a problem 1. Open the attached file 2. Go to page 5 3. Say I want to copy chapter 1 4. Press arrow left the place cursor left of Chapter 1 5. CTRL+SHIFT ARROW DOWN number of times to select content of Chapter 1 5. CTRL+C 6. CTRL+N 7. CTRL+V Result Chapter 1 page style being copied & pasted Endnote page style skipped, but endnotes are pasted (making even more complicated) --- 8. CTRL+N 9. Sidebar -> Styles -> Page Style tab 10. Create a new page style called Chapter 1 11. On the page tab set orientation to landscape 12. Press OK (style isnt applied, only present) 13. CTRL+V Result. Conflicting page styles with same name. The existing - in document - page style is kept above the one on the clipboard. If there is no conflict the page style is simply pasted The solution would be to make the copy/paste style unique. So if they same style name is present in source as target document, the style from source document needs to renamed to something else. Instead of using an arbitrary page style with the same name Another option would be to not copy/paste the page style in any case The current is mishmash of both worlds -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
