Description Tino Mori 2018-03-18 21:18:00 UTC
Description:
My project requires very specific page sizes for printing, but each time I navigate away, my specific page details are gone.  There seems to be no way to save page styles, and this makes things difficult.  Please address this.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a new page style "TrialRun"
2. Apply it to a page.
3. Save and close document.
4. Reopen document.  (style will no longer be applied)

Actual Results:  
What happened is that I only had the original style options, and the style I wanted was no longer applied.

Expected Results:
This is what I expected, but not what I wanted.  I expected for my styles to still exist.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Another way to solve this problem would be to allow users to turn off page numbers on certain pages, even if they're of the same "style".

I appreciate your help!

Please give it a try with a recent LibreOffice version, ie. 5.4.5 or 6.0.2.

I have the most current version, just updated it yesterday to check that this was not the problem.  Unfortunately the problem persists.

Okay, I reset the version field, since it should point to the earliest (known) affected version.

How did you create the page style?

Here's what I did:
- Start Writer,
- Open Sidebar / Styles, and select Page Styles,
- Right click, and select New...,
- Finalize page style, and click OK,
- Double-click on it to apply it to the document.
- Save and reopen document.

I can still see the style in the document, and it's applied. Tried with LO 6.0.2.1 / Windows 7.

I also use the most recent version, on Mac.  Perhaps it is a problem of having multiple styles in the same document, a different one per page.
