Confirmed on Windows builds as well.

Heading 1 'inherits' from Heading which 'inherits' from Default. So reason for their presence as "Applied Styles" is fathomable--but I agree they probably do not belong on the filtered list. Only Heading 1 should show as applied.

Other UX-advise opinion?

The Default style is always in the list of applied styles even for newly created documents. Adding a H1 borrows the parent Heading, same is true for Title, a Drawing takes Caption with it, a List the Text Body, etc.

Agreed, but Default too at any time.


We had a similar discussion about hidden styles that are like Applied not a category alike the other entries in that dropdown but a special filter. If we expose those two as separate checkboxes and have a tree by default that is reduced (or better greyed out) depending on the checked options, the situation is much clearer.

+1

Since the origin of the present situation (inheritance) IMO enhancement rather than bug. But ...
