Description: The 02010000.xhp help article [1] for the .uno:StyleApply and SVX_HID_STYLE_LISTBOX should be rewritten to bring it in line with actual function. It now reads "Apply Style" but for clarity and consistency of the UI it should match the tool-tip assigned to this droplist combobox. The article should be edited to refer to "Set Paragraph Style". Additionally not clear that an UNO command still exists for the .uno:StyleApplyState stanza linked to this help article. If not, that should probably be removed.

The referring Help main for the two sections in the 02010000.xhp article is the Formatting Bar entry: http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/help/source/text/swriter/main0202.xhp#38 It looks like just the article needs to be adjusted, but the help image--img_id3152801, "zellvor.png"--has not been correct, i.e. matched the tooltip, for some time. Rather than its Apply Style label it should also read Set Paragraph Style.

The UNO command is available but isnt used anywhere but http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sfx2/sdi/sfx.sdi#4240 @Stuart, @Foote, @Heiko: Is 'Set' or 'Apply' better for the tooltip? It would be good to get a set of words that we stick to when writing descriptive tooltips, so they are consistent everywhere.
(In reply to Yousuf Philips (jay) from comment #3) > @Stuart, @Foote, @Heiko: Is 'Set' or 'Apply' better for the tooltip? As a non-native speaker the term "set" sounds to me like changing properties (German: "ändern") and "apply" to make it effective (German: "anwenden"). So my take is "Apply paragraph style" (title style capitalization makes no sense in tooltips).
Created attachment 132781 [details] The tool-tip for the Formatting toolbar paragraph style drop list control Attaching clips so the issue needing attention is clear. Image shows both the tool-tip from the .xcu and the extended tip from the .xhp The role of the drop list is modal, it shows what is in use but also what would be applied. So believe either action verb is correct. I am neutral as long as it is consistent. Or we could make it neutral and remove the action verb to read "Paragraph Style" as with the font and color controls--and the tool-tip/extended tool-tip could be adjusted for that. The "Set Paragraph Style" tool-tip was assigned in source with: http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/UI/WriterCommands.xcu#2889 While the extended tool-tip with the old "Apply Style" annotation is picked up from the .xhp Help articles noted.

Stupid me, i think we must have had this discussion before as we changed it from "Apply Paragraph Style" in 5.1 to "Set Paragraph Style". Removing the verb would be a step back in my view, as i've been adding them to as many tooltips as possible.
