Description howil 2019-05-23 09:22:08 UTC
Description:
A newly inserted page number field can not be changed in style and size just by selecting/marking the field itself.
One has to select the text frame containing the page number. This is not intuitive or self-explaining for new users.
I am not entirely sure if this should be marked as but or as feature request.

Please see also https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/138742/default-font-size-and-page-number-placement-impress/?answer=194861#post-id-194861 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. insert a page number field 
2. select the page number field 
3. change its font or size in the properties tab

Actual Results:
properties like font and size are not changed for the page number field

Expected Results:
One expects to change the font-style and size of a page number field by marking it modifying its properties instead of selecting its text frame.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Font and size change works fine for me with slide numbers in Impress.

Please try with 6.3.0.
