--- Comment #11 from Mike Kaganski <mikekagan...@hotmail.com> --- (In reply to Eyal Rozenberg from comment #9) 1. You are trying to over-regulate the procedure, without thinking why it is as it is (and removing my resolution, when I would ask if it's up to you to do that, and if it's polite). The why is that usually all would behave as you expect; but sometimes the problem gets the attention of someone who is not just guessing, but who happens to know exactly; and that person takes the responsibility to give a final decision on a problem that shouldn't waste others' time. 2. Your example is exactly why it should *not* be implemented. Even in your example, there's no way every part would need *every* bit different; and most likely, it would need *most* (but a couple of details) consistent. Fonts, their sizes, spacing, headings, ... In this case, implementing your proposal breaks the fundamental principle of the master documents (which you refuse), which is - ability to set the style centrally, and have all the sub-documents look consistent. Someone making the final preparations, and deciding to change something, would have to edit individual documents on each and every thing they need to change globally. Direct formatting, or separate styles per chapter, which is something that the creator would be perfectly aware of, is the solution to your example. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
