Hi.
If you select all text (the whole document) and menu Format>Clear direct
formatting (Ctl M), lots may change visually, does the document then
behave as you might expect styles to behave. I do this as a matter of
course to get MS docs into odts that I can style properly.

Hi
If i update a style that is used in a document e.g. change font and font
size, should the whole document where that style is used be changed to the
new settings when <Apply> is pressed? Currently I have to highlight the
areas and then reapply the style to it.
They should update automatically *unless* direct formatting is applied to
the text. Direct formatting always brings problems. Can you share a
document, so we can see where the problem is? AFAIK the mailing list strips
attachments, so you need to upload the sample document anywhere else.
I 've just done a few more tests after reading your comments. All the tests i've done
are using the "Default Style".
I went back to the Windows 10 version and I changed the font to something
radically different to what i really wanted and it did change a lot of the
document with that style but not all of it. I think i missed it before because
the paragraph that i had on the screen didn;t change but when i changed it to a
weird font it scrolled the text up the screen a few lines so i could the text
below it and see a change. So i changed the font back to something sensible and
it worked but it did not change the font size at all, it was stuck at 14pt even
though i changed it to 12pt.
I've discovered that if i change the font/size in "default style", it affects other parts
of the document that has "text body" style applied.
Its the same on version 6 on linux.

Ricardo
