Description: Modifying the style of a paragraph in a change tracked docx results in a lot of entries in the Manage Changes dialog instead of one in Word. In comparison when changing direct character formatting there is only one entry both in Word and Writer. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert text in Word 2. Enable change tracking 3. Modify the paragraph style. This will result in one change tracking entry. 4. Save the file and open it in Writer 5. Open the Mange Changes window Actual Results: There are lots of change tracking entries for the formatting change, one for each word of the paragraph. Expected Results: There should be only one entry just like in Word. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info:
