--- Comment #9 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.he...@gmail.com> ---
What I understand from your description is that you expect a style being
associated to fields, in particular to a variable. In other words a date field
should have a special character style, for instance. Or rather paragraph style
since you want to change the first heading from H2 to H1 when the variable
field is inserted. Right?

First of all I don't see any reason for a style at all, and your step #7 makes
no sense to me (actually the dialog has to be modal so that style selection
isn't possible at all). The style is not applied to the field (in this case the
variable) but the active paragraph. So independently from the visibility it
doesn't work.

And even when there would be such an option how should a user understand why a
paragraph has a formatting when the source (your field) is invisible? Bad
usability, at least.

I'm pretty sure you find alternative ways to solve your use case (would be
interesting though). It's better to keep the program straight forward and easy
to use. So WONTFIX from my side. But NEEDINFO first, in case I got it wrong.
