I guess we just don't break down the attributes, right? Yes, as seem at https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/cui/source/tabpages/paragrph.cxx?r=8aec73d7&mo=14578&fi=402#493 - unfortunately all three get reset to blanks together in case SID_ATTR_LRSPACE state is less than SfxItemState::DEFAULT. The "combined" items in our internal model, corresponding to multiple user-visible properties, is a plague that affects us in multitude of ways. See also bug 106984 comment 10, where *the same* root cause results in inability to search for some attributes sensibly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Yes, that's true. Just to advertise the new feature: you get insights to the styles with the Styles Inspector at the sidebar. Mike, the three PS differ only in Para First Line Indent but the properties dialog has empty fields for before/after text and first line and line spacing.

There is nothing wrong with showing blank values for all three. Internally, all three are stored as a single "item", and so if you change any of the three, this "item" becomes different from the "item" in the other paragraphs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

It had the same problem, even though this time Writer used the default font and fontsize (my Fedora machine has those custom-set because I prefer DejaVu Serif 13). On the Ubuntu platform, even though kept evergreen, LO About says this: Version: 6.4.6.2 Build ID: 1:6.4.6-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 CPU threads: 2; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US; Calc: threaded I logged out of my account on the Ubuntu platform, changed from Ubuntu to Ubuntu on Wayland, logged into the same account, and replicated the problem. (Then I changed back from Ubuntu on Wayland.) I didn't find a way to change my desktop environment, even when warm-booting and checking the one-time boot menu. I may not have another DE now. When I've tried others in the past, and I think I've tried all that were installed with any recent Linux distro, including Cinnamon, I quickly came back to Gnome, and I guess most users of these distros use Gnome, so if Cinnamon makes a difference we should find out why and bring that difference into Gnome. You're running a later LO version, albeit alpha, so maybe it's been cured between my version and yours. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138726 --- Comment #5 from Nick Levinson --- I can't either, and I'm the original reporter. I newly tested on version 7.0.4.2. However, while at first I thought maybe this was fixed in between versions, perhaps as an unnoticed side effect of some other change, and was going to set the status as resolved/worksforme, I encountered another version of the problem. I now think there's a predicate condition I haven't identified. Something needs to be added to the STR, but I don't know what it is. This time, I found that with mixed unnamed styles and Select All I got values of -24.51" before and after text, -39.27" for the first line, 3.94" above and below paragraphs. The before and after should have been zeros and the others should have been blank. That's a lot less crazy than the previous version of the problem, but it's still pushing text off the page. I'm uploading an image of the Format > Paragraph dialog. Then I tried something else, twice. I created a new document, wrote a word as a paragraph (thus a one-line paragraph), cut and pasted the paragraph to go into 2 pages, Selected All, and found Format > Paragraph was as expected. Then I set the first paragraph only for Before Paragraph to 1" and Selected All. This time the dialog had blank values for Before Paragraph (that's correct) and for After Paragraph and First Line (those are wrong). Whether I had saved the document didn't matter; I tried both ways. (I didn't keep images of this.) I don't know how to diagnose this further. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

I tried with bibisect-linux-x64-7.0 on oldest and last70onmaster. The steps I took were 1.) Open Test-Doc.odt 2.) Ctrl-A to select all 3.) Format - Paragraph properties. At this point, the top three items are completely blank (since they have differing values in the selected paragraphs). Above Paragraph says 0.37 line. If I change Above Paragraph to 0.04, then everything looks as expected. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
