Please use the right tool. Ask LibreOffice is about user questions.. This ends up in the area of technical questions. At ask people assume things to be this way. Or ask what the practical issue is Or give quick fixes (workarounds). So it's misplaced at ask (if you ask me). You could argue it's misplaced here too as it start with more or less technical inquiry. I unintentionally saw it a issue fixating on Style Inspector, which was wrong (as Baron pointed out) So this in my opinion not a true ask question. More a possible 'bug'/ enhancement. FWIW: Enhancement request are no bugs either, if we want be nitpicking. So don't belong here. Would belong to UX enhancement request tracker or whatever. The inquiry based on: "So someone who does not understand the difference, and actually has no actual problem with it, tries to "simplify" things they don't understand?" It's surely possible I don't understand. Happily to admit. Except, the way you tend to present it, makes it look like rather obvious, while refrain from explaining it (in my perception). > See "16.30.2 Paragraph Styles" in ODF [1]: > > > In addition to paragraph properties, paragraph styles may define text > > properties.

And text style referencing to "character style" (I guess) I'm talking about the relevance of "Paragraph *Direct Formatting*" next to "Character *Direct Formatting* ". I'm not talking about "paragraph styles". And even if the documentation opens the possibility still doesn't explain the need of usefulness, IMHO The advantage of the (presence of) Paragraph Direct Formatting next to Character Direct Formatting being unclear to me. Direct Formatting should not be be distributed around easily. It should be reduced to a minimum (without breaking user experience using DF) to make working with style a success, IMHO. And distinctions between Paragraph Direct Formatting/ Character Direct Formatting kind of subtle (without being visible; making managing even harder. You easy distributing DF all over the document without knowing. Ruining the user experience of using (paragraph) styles. You need to manually scrub all DF. Polluting the XML files with unnecessary (additional) DF junk. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
