Description: UI: Disable they Page Rotation setting for landscape page style Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Writer -> Sidebar -> Styles -> Page Styles -> Right Click Landscape Modify 2. Page tab Actual Results: It's possible to change the rotation of the landscape page style. This would result in a page style not matching it's name Expected Results: If it's not to hard, simply disabling that setting (simply as precaution) Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: e8b8e7be0b2ad693224cd94062a55610eb69df7e CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.3 Build 9600; UI render: default; VCL: win Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL); UI: en-US Calc: CL
If you take by name you are right. I can confirm in Version: 7.0.1.2 Build ID: 7cbcfc562f6eb6708b5ff7d7397325de9e764452 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (ro_RO.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded But if you think is just a proposal for a proposed style I think some developers would not agree with you.

It's a nitpick ;-). However they landscape popups in different context. Name of the style; And as a setting Format -> Page Style (for say the default page style) In tabbed mode the page orientation of the default page style gets changed.. Where I assume this should't be done
What is the difference to bug 136432?
(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #3) > What is the difference to bug 136432? This is about the 'landscape' style template. Where the style landscape suggests landscape view, which can be changed.. Originally idea was to block the change of the style.. Currently I tend slightly to having stock template styles, which can be modified next to manual styles. However this part of large topic :-). And i'm of course meddling with the design. So this won't be easy.. And is is about trade offs
Telesto, where is the use case? Why do you want to change page orientation of a page style named "Landscape" to "Portrait"? If you change page size of Page Style "A5" to A4, the name will still be A5. Do you want to change that also? If you change behaviour for one setting you have to change it for parallel situations also. This will end up in chaos. I've changed status to enhancement, because actual everyhing works as it should (actually) work. As an enhancement request it has to be evaluated by Design-Team => Status UNCONFIRMED
Don't think it's needed to block attributes nor good usability to do so. You can also use the Footnote style for normal paragraphs or make Citation look and work like headings. Shall we prevent this too?

And there is surely no use case.. Only prevention case. But will create a ticket where most of the 'page style' stuff is merged into a single 'idea' (especially the 'orientation topic'). However I assume objection against the total, the building blocks, they way it's presented etc.. but will we see :-).
