Apply justify option text changes in normal format. I place cursor in a general position into the paragraphs Apply justify optin (using icon or command menu), text doesn't change. Expected Results: Why is there this attitude? Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info:

Formatting, by style or with "direct" formatting, will apply to current selection or within the current paragraph with cursor focus. So, when you select multiple paragraphs to adjust formatting--you affect all paragraphs of the selection (and then look to be giving them each "Default" formatting, i.e. removing Bold, Underline, Justification, etc.). When you have cursor positioned inside a paragraph--changes to paragraph formatting will apply to just that current paragraph. And if you've selected a word, or sentence (rather than one or more paragraphs)--formatting changes apply to just that selection. You can also adjust formatting by modifying a style (over on the SideBar), and those changes there would affect multiple elements. You make the change in one place against the style--and it then applies to all parts of the document with that style as it updates.
