Hi Philip,
I would expect styles to be imported without any change happening during the
import. Is there a setting I missed somewhere?
Before choosing the file: Did you click "Overwrite" in dialog for loading
styles. If there is a style with the same name it won't be imported with the new features
by default.
Thanks for that info. No, I did'nt notice the 'Overwrite' box. And the new file
I started in haste was just a 'generic' Writer document and not from one of my
templates. That means that the style Text Body was in its virgin state with
left align.
The problem was, I guess, connected with inheritance. All the new styles I
wanted to gather from the import of another document depended on (inherited
from) Text Body. Of course, in my imported file, Text Body and its other
relatives had long since been modified to justified.
I never use the bog standard Text Body style so I never thought to check it the
new, receiving, file.
I just ran another test using 'overwrite' and that solved the problem. Thanks.
Best,
Philip
