Description Joel Madero 2015-04-21 04:58:58 UTC 
Steps:

1. Open writer;
2. View -> Toolbars -> form controls;
3. On form controls click on "label field"

Observed: Font dropdown grays out, the only way to change the font style and size is to double click (or right click) on the label, find "font", click the ... next to the listed font, then select the new font that you want.


Desired: I don't get why we can't still use the dropdown for fonts


Note: This affects other things as well within font controls, I see no reason why we limit these controls and add so many steps to change a font. For instance "text box" has the same issue.

Because the software is quite complicated ;)
