If users change the spacing around an image before captioning it (per image, or using the Graphics style so it affects many images at once), they most likely want to keep that same spacing around the frame once the image is captioned, without needing to go through the whole process again. If it weren't transferred, they would end up with a caption that's closer to the surrounding text when I suspect most would want the caption to be closer to the picture. However, it is difficult to then change spacing around all graphics at once: editing the style to add extra spacing under all graphics would also affect the captioned graphics. My suggestion would be to: - keep the transfer of properties as is (from graphics properties to surrounding frame properties); however: - add a "Captioned graphic" style that is automatically applied to a captioned graphic, and - add a "Caption frame" style that is automatically applied to the surrounding frame. That way, it would be easy to handle these elements' styling separately, for example changing a property for all captioned graphics but not other graphics, or for all caption frames but not other frames. Of course, one would be able to set inheritance between those if they want them to be consistent. For example, making "Caption frame" inherit properties from "Graphics" so the spacing for the whole document can be set all at once. Thoughts? Maybe that feels even more heretic: automatically changing the style of the object. And I am focusing on spacing around an image, but it might not make sense for all properties (e.g. a custom frame border. Does one want to keep it surrounding only the image? Or the caption as well?) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
