Seems to work correctly on Windows builds, from the Format panel the selected font Size is present when used in the Find or the Replace formatting.

Hmm, font size changes *are* applied on Windows builds where the match occurs. Be sure to check to match in Styles as well.

Thank you for reporting the bug. To be certain the reported issue is not
related to corruption in the user profile, could you please reset your
Libreoffice profile ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile ) and
re-test?

I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present

Comment 8 Buovjaga 2019-01-26 12:53:38 UTC
The sizes are shown in the dialog and changes are applied.

All testers used a version newer than 6.1.2, so it would be interesting to hear results with the latest version. Setting to NEEDINFO.

A new major release of LibreOffice is available since this bug was reported.
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to

Ricky, perhaps it is related to bug 126527, that is fixed in LO 6.4. So could you give it a try with 6.4.0.0.beta1?

=> NEEDINFO
Comment 14 ricky.tigg 2019-11-19 08:11:54 UTC
Hey. File not ready yet for testing as Appimage for RPM packages at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/GetInvolved#Test_Pre-releases then link http://libreoffice.soluzioniopen.com/index.php/pre-releases/.
Comment 15 Buovjaga 2019-11-19 11:12:14 UTC
The daily build appimage is new enough to have Jim's fix: http://libreoffice.soluzioniopen.com/index.php/daily-version/

In this older screenshot, you don't have "Including styles" checked. Stuart advised in comment 3 to check it. Can you test again with this option?

Illustration of issue

I noticed one more issie from Writer_v.6.1.2.1_Find&Replace_Format_3.png itself from Writer_v.6.1.2.1_Find&Replace_Format.tar. Styles, which were set as 'Book' and 'Regular' were both changed by Writer as 'Not Italic'.

Having "Including styles" checked as advised, had no beneficial effect.
Comment 20 Dieter 2020-05-26 10:56:29 UTC
Ricky, it seems, that nobody could confirm this bug since more than six month. So I‘d like to ask, if it is still reproducible for you. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
Comment 21 ricky.tigg 2020-05-29 08:27:57 UTC
It is a link to the install files. The distribution version –6.4.4.2– must stay in place on my system as the only one installed. No material related to those install packages as been documented properly, so the destination installation as well the way to remove it after installation are unknown. Appimage, which i would use, could be an alternative if only the updates of files were synchronized with those install files; that is still not the case.
Comment 22 Timur 2020-10-22 12:46:54 UTC
This bug is not clear from the beginning. 
All makes it hard: attached zip instead of single file, partial screenshots and separate ODT, "see attached" without explanation...

Finally I don't know what's the exact issue. I guess search didn't work for font size. 
Screenshot show "Not italic, normal" which was issue from bug 95927 resolved from LO 6.3. 

So I'll close the bug. 
If problem exists with LO 6.4.7 or 7.0.2, you need to give clear description, so that it's immediately clear. Best in ODT, put some text and screenshots in.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 95927 ***
