Description: When showing stiles in hierchical view, the styles tree is initially non-expanded, and if a paragraph's style is a n-level one, n > 1, the user doesn't see the paragraph style selected because it's hidden. I think it would be a nice thing to have the style tree expanding automatically so that the user can see where the paragraph style is placed in the tree. Otherways, he/she must try to open all the tree brances until he/she finds it. Steps to Reproduce: 1. open a document with complex style tree 2. put the cursor in an n-level style Actual Results: the paragraph style remains hidden Expected Results: the styles tree should expand at least in a way that permits to see the paragraph style selected Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.0.1.2 Build ID: 00(Build:2) CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (C); UI: en-US Ubuntu package version: 1:7.0.1_rc2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 Calc: threaded
I confirm the current behaviour, but I have no opinion, if this should be changed or not cc: Design-Team
Cannot confirm. The hierarchical view shows Default Style expanded and, for example, Heading collapsed. Adding text with a H1 heading keeps this but when I select the heading this part of the tree opens. Makes perfect sense to me.

Makes perfect sense to me. That's not true in 7.0.1. Putting the cursor in an "internal" style doesn't expand the tree, the style isn't visible, and the user cannot know where it is in the hierarchical tree.

(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #4) > WFM in (IIRC, at some point in the development we had issues when the Styles > Inspector was introduced) I don't see how Styles Inspector related here. But I can't repro it with Version: 7.0.3.1 (x64) Build ID: d7547858d014d4cf69878db179d326fc3483e082 CPU threads: 12; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19042; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU); UI: en-US Calc: CL I have Hierarchical selected in Styles sidebar; I create two paragraphs - one Heading 1, and one Text Body; I put cursor to the latter one (Text Body), make sure that the Styles has Heading node collapsed (so that Heading 1 is not visible); I press cursor in the document to move to the Heading 1 paragraph. This expands Heading in the sidebar automatically, and highlights Heading 1 for me.
Sorry, I haven't read bug report carefully enough. I can't confirm the described behaviour with Version: 7.0.3.1 (x64) Build ID: d7547858d014d4cf69878db179d326fc3483e082 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19042; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB Calc: threaded Sorry for confusion. Paolo, could you please update to LO 7.0.3 and retest? Thank you => NEEDINFO
ok, it's fixed in 7.0.3 (from snap beta libreoffice) or could it be a problem with something in my configuration? how do I install 7.0.1 from snap?
