Description: I've loaded a .docx file into LibreOffice and tried to change a header that has an underline, but I can't. I brought up the properties sidebar, and there's no visible difference in properties between this header and some nearby text that would explain the presence or absence of the underline. I saved the file as a Flat XML ODF Text Document, found the text, found the property, and saw that it uses fo:border-bottom="1.5pt solid #FF0000". Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a document with one word, and save it as a .fodt file. 2. Edit the file manually and modify the style of that word by adding a text-properties style of fo:border-bottom="1.5pt solid #FF0000" 3. Load the document and see the red underline 4. Try to change the red underline to blue Actual Results: There's no way to view or edit the red underline. Expected Results: I'd like to create, read, update and delete the red underline. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Actually, I'd like all of the fo:border-* properties to be editable, because I don't like having the MS Word folks say "Oooo, look at what we can do and you can't! Neener-neener-neeeeeener!" Version: 6.0.7.3 Build ID: 1:6.0.7-0ubuntu0.18.04.10
Created attachment 157417 [details] A gzipped .fodt document with the word 'test' in bold and with a red fo:border-bottom. Minimal sample document, created to show a red underline that can't be created or edited by LibreOffice. You can copy+paste or delete it.
If there was a way to show/edit formatting that can't be handled by the properties sidebar's widgets, that'd be better. Possibly a small text box on the properties sidebar? Right now, I'm using 'vim' to edit the properties in the .fodt file. Thanks!
Awww, fudge. I just found the little button to the right of the 'Paragraph' style header that pops up *all* the formatting options, and that was where I found the border styles. Then found the border styles for the characters. When I first saw those little buttons, I thought it was for moving that part of the sidebar to their own window. Sorry for writing up a bug report for a feature that already exists. :-( Now that I know about it, I'll never stumble like this again.
