Bug ID: 155608
Summary: Set default font easily in settings
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
The global/product options/preferences panels have a font entry which is of no
help in changing the default font. For some reason that's beyond me (as an
ergonomist and designer) products always choose a horrible, cramped and ugly
serif font as default, with no way to allow it to be changed in one hit across
the product.
Even if users like serifs or prefer sans-serifs, imposing a single font on
users, making them have to work out how to edit templates or individually on
each doc or style is draconian if intended behaviour and just bad usability if
it just evolved that way.
A simple entry in the Options' Font tab labled "Default Font" with a dropdown
with all the fonts, would be an easy win. It would also help to have context
help* explaining that "More extensive customisation can be done by editing the
Default Paragraph Style" with a link to open that dialogue
*context help is in place explanatory text in the dialogue panel as used for
example in the Security tab
