--- Comment #4 from Eek! A Bug. Kill it! <[email protected]> --- New wrinkle in this bug. The bug goes away if you open LO Writer up in Safe Mode, but upon closing and reopening the program, the bug returns. So, even though I have no extensions installed, I went through each Safe Mode option from top to bottom, one radio button and one check box at a time. I finally got down to the option I dread, which is resetting everything to factory select mode, which causes a hell of a lot of work getting my preferences back the way I like them. So, the bug went away with the factory reset, so I reset all my preferences one option page a time and rechecked. The bug then reappeared as soon as I opened an existing document (instead of the default document page). The document I loaded was a fairly heavily styled document -- but it did not use the Title Paragraph Style, yet that is what was grayed out and no longer worked. So, all that work for nothing. I have a lot of other things I want and really need to be doing, but I have to continually spend countless hours troubleshooting bugs that should never have made it through...and this is version after version after version for about two years now. I had to load this 7.4.1.1 version because of the window sizing issue with 7.4.0.3. I also notice that you have still not fixed the letter size dimensions issue. How long are you going to let that to? And I just now realized that none of my custom character styles were saved upon doing the Safe Mode route you always insist users do. Joy! No other word processor I've ever used in the last 30 years has ever required me to open in Safe Mode and then spend half an hour putting everything back the way it was. Too much work on bells and whistles such as Dark Mode when basic word processor functions do not work. If you cannot even get the proper page size for a letter document and let users have to figure out they have to use Moderate Margins instead of intuitively using the Normal (0.75") setting, then I don't know why you are spending all this time and energy to continuously update adding features instead of fixing issues fundamental to the operation of the program. All the bells and whistles don't mean anything if the damned program is nothing but a giant headache to users, even for those in technical professions such as myself. Too bug riddled, too complicated, unintuitive, and user unfriendly. Instead of changing the icons for Writer, Calc, etc. (and you did not even do so uniformly throughout), please start working on the real problems. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
