With the discussion about adding more styles to the drop down menu (bug 108026) and other related styles discussions in other bugs, i think it important that we discuss the order of styles in the drop down menu control and if any paragraph styles should be added. The current list and order is as follows Default Style Text Body Quotations Title Subtitle Heading 1 Heading 2 Heading 3 I believe it should be reorganized similar to how i organized them in the Styles menu, like so Default Style Title Subtitle Heading 1 Heading 2 Heading 3 Text Body Quotations The last time we changed the list was in 4.1[1], when Samuel opened up the debate of the mailing list[2]. [1] https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/1248/ [2] http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Libreoffice-ux-advise-Default-Styles-in-Writer-td4020441.html As a reference, this is MS Word's default list of paragraph styles. Normal - equivalent to Text Body (proportional line spacing) No Spacing - equivalent to Default (single line spacing) Heading 1 - equivalent to Heading 1 Heading 2 - equivalent to Heading 2 Title - equivalent to Title Subtitle - equivalent to Subtitle Quote - equivalent to Quotations Intensive Quote List Paragraph And here is Google Docs' default list Normal Text Title Subtitle Heading 1 Heading 2 Heading 3
The actual order is: "Text body", "Title", "Subtitle", "Heading 1", "Heading 2", "Heading 3", "Quotations" followed by "Preformatted Text". Text body on top makes sense but why do we have the obscure Preformatted style in the menu at all?
