As there is no way to change the style of bullets/lists created with

toolbar button so it will use a specific style.
Even better: re-map all the direct formating toolbar buttons so they
would use styles.
Even better2: save this re-mapped toolbar with a template.
Have checked to see what style is used when you click the button, and
the edit that styles?
It uses a character style which I can edit, but no identifiable
paragraph style (apart from the style of the surrounding paragraph). As
I want to change indents, I can either change it for each list
manually, or create my own list styles and skip using the button. Both
are a pain.
in many HTML editors you can choose if the toolbar buttons create
ad-hoc formating or semantic formating ( <b> vs. <strong>). As OOo is
very strong when it comes to semantic formating (==styles) I just wish
the toolbar could reflect that.
Is it possible? Or am I stuck with a toolbar full of buttons with no
use for me,
You can edit your toolbar to remove any button you don't like.
I know, but it doesn't really save much space, since there are buttons
there that I *do* want, so I can't get rid of the full toolbar.
and an ever-growing stylist window (which is starting to become
unmanageable)?
You can use the drop down box on the bottom of the Styles and
Formatting List to only show a limited # of styles. I usually use
either Custom (to show mine) or applied (to show all of the applied
styles in the document).
I use these options all the time, but it is still getting long. At the
moment, I have 20 custom paragraph style, and 8 character styles + I
have some default styles applied, so both lists are rather long and
getting harder and harder to manage (I'll probably have more styles
before this document is finished).
