Bug ID: 95029
Summary: Search for Character Styles
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.4.5.2 release
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: natedhee...@gmail.com
As far as I've been able to determine, there is no functionality provided by
default in LibreOffice Writer to search by character style, although it is
provided for paragraph style. Someone raised this issue in 2013
[here](https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/21867/writer-how-can-i-search-for-character-syle/),
but the solution provided (an extension called
[AltSearch](http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/alternative-dialog-find-replace-for-writer))
"has not had a release in over 1 year and may no longer be maintained." Even if
it were up to date, I would prefer the reliability of default integration for
this "Search for character style" functionality than to rely on an extension
that would require attention from time to time, could face at least temporary
setbacks with new versions of LibreOffice, and could still eventually become
unsupported. So is this something that LibreOffice's developers would be
willing to consider?
By the way, I originally posted this at https://ask.libreoffice.org but was
informed that this was a more appropriate venue.
