Description jsv 2021-11-23 10:14:07 UTC
Description:
1. Start Writer in safe mode

2. Press the Enter key may times so that now you have 2 pages.

3. In the beginning of the 1st page, type foo.

   In the beginning of the second page, type bar.

4. Apply the "Right Page" style to the first page.

   This also means that the second page will automaticaly "take" the "Left Page" style.

Everything is fine yet.

5. Press Ctrl+A and then Ctrl+M to delete any direct formatting.

Everything is fine yet.

Save and close the document, and then open it again.

You will see that both pages now have the "Default Page Style".

Comment 1 Heiko Tietze 2021-11-23 13:29:55 UTC
Using a page break between Foo and Bar (ctrl+enter) ends up in no break after cleaning all direct formatting followed by save/reload. Buggy, yes. But I cannot confirm the loss of page style settings (and it's unclear what exactly you do).

Maybe the question for UX is whether the page style is direct formatting or not. But unclear to me. Please add the keyword again, if it comes to this question.

Reminds me on similar issue in bug 144948.
Comment 2 jsv 2021-11-23 13:58:24 UTC
Heiko, I haven't tried it with using Ctrl+Enter.

What I'm talking about is typing "foo" in the fist page, then pressing the Enter key as many times as you need to the second page to appear, and then typing "bar" in the second page.

That is, this is simply two pages of text, there are no manual page breaks.
Comment 3 jsv 2021-11-23 14:00:06 UTC
There is a typo:

"What I'm talking about is typing "foo" in the FIRST page"

Sorry, I made typos very often. It is very inconvenient to not have an option to edit comments here.

CTRL-M removing page style should certainly update the Navigator, if this is the proper result. What CTRL+M should do or shouldn't do is lovely discussion topic. Or if some additional remove formatting tool being needed. See bug 145118 and bug 139693 for example

NEW meaning confirm in this case. Without any clue what counts as bug. Navigator not updating or the removal of the page style or even both.

Likely a dupe of bug 73483.
