--- Comment #12 from Justin L <jl...@mail.com> --- (In reply to Luke Deller from comment #11) > Which element did you feel was evil: supporting the concept of character > highlighting as distinct from background shading Having two properties that do the exact same thing is atrocious. > However the concept of highlighting might have merit: Highlighting is exactly the same as character background shading - the only difference is that it is a separate property (with a separate tool in MSO) and is limited to 16-ish colours. Otherwise they are identical (other than implementation quirks like handling differently for number formatting and not being eligible for a character style). > What do you think of adding a loext: (extension) attribute to persist the > highlighting information that LibreOffice currently holds in memory in this > case? You already have the situation where a LO highlight edit will save as shading (although yes, there is a user setting for that). So MSWord users just need to learn that "paragraph shading" has nothing to do with paragraphs at all. The whole idea of maintaining compatibility MSO->ODF->MSO is rather too far fetched to merit any effort in order to support a horrible MSO "feature". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
