Bug ID: 155740
Summary: Support distinction rather than override of
conflicting subdocument styles
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
When you add subsequent documents to a master document, styles already existing
in the master document (including those from previous inserted documents) are
kept, and the same-name styles from the newly-inserted document are discarded.
While this is not a bug, a user may well want different behavior. That is
especially true with commonly-used styles, those styles defined by default,
like the default PS, Body Text, Emphasis, Default Page Style, etc. Sometimes,
you want to align subsequent documents to the style of the first; but
sometimes, you may want to preserve the styling in each of the documents,
because the differences are intentional.
Some specific example: One subdocument has all pages with light blue background
(default page style), and the next subdocument has them in light green. These
documents could constitute a children's book with different chapters in
different background color.
