Description lloyde4628 2021-06-04 19:54:24 UTC
Description:
I defined a new paragraph style that changes font s9zes as well as other operations to paragraph. When I use it on a paragraph of 11-poioint fonts, it sometimes changes all the lines to 12-point size as it should, but more often changes all but about 10% of the lines, leaving the reset in 11 point. When it fails to change all the lines, the font size window is blank, so I can manually set the new size to 12 point. Because I am editing a series of 10+ books with identical formats,this becomes a nuisance;
Thanks for looking at this. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Import text in 11 point font size.
2. Beginning with default paragraph style, define a new par. style that specifies 12 point font. Font also changes to Calibri.
3.Select paragraph of text. Click on new paragraph style.
4. Look at font size window. If it is blank, change font size to 12 point manually. (Should not need this step.)

Actual Results:

Are we all to know (12 point)
That He is always with us (11 point)
Wherever we may go. (12 Point)

Expected Results:
All lines 12 point


Reproducible: Always

Please verify if the lines of the paragraph that are NOT being changed have some direct formatting applied. Styles are secondary to direct formatting.

You would need to select all, clear direct formatting, and then apply your new style. That should consistently apply the change via style.

Mixing DF with Style can have odd results--clear the DF.
