Description philippe 2022-02-24 15:15:09 UTC
When displaying options-Writer-default font (unsure of the text, mine is in French), changing the font for "Legend" keeps resetting to 12points
Comment 1 Dieter 2022-03-09 15:36:07 UTC
Thank you for reporting the bug. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away.

I've tested with the last version 7.3.1.3
I open Tools->Options->LibreOfficeWriter->Standard fonts (remember I'm in French, I assume this is the entry)and change the size of Legend font from 12 points to anything else, I save by pressing OK, I reopen the same window the font size is still 12 points.
I set the bug to UNCONFIRMED as you indicated.
Comment 3 Dieter 2022-03-13 10:34:56 UTC
I don't have font "Legend" but I've tested with Liberation Serif and couldn't reproduce. Does it happen with every font? Are you also able to reproduce it in SafeMode (Help -> Restart in SafeMode)?
=> NEEDINFO

There must be s misunderstandanding. Legen is not a font but on option in the dialog window.
If you open the menu Tools->Options->LibreOfficeWriter->Standard fonts you will find "by default", "Title", "List", "Index" AND "Legend". Changing this one (not tested all of them) doesn't work.

=> UNCONFIRMED

Ah, it's about captions!

I confirm it with

Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 51fb84829afbc1c0957fd1a489085613ad199f1a
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB
Calc: CL

Steps to reproduce
1. Open Tools -> Options -> LibreOfficeWriter -> Basic Fonts (Western)
2. Change font size for captions to 16pt -> O.K.
3. Open dialog again

Actual result:
Default font size for caption (12pt)

Expected result:
16 pt

Really thanks to Noel. 
But Dieter, please search before confirming the bug, you already was in CC. 

Also, if you are not interested in the bug anymore, please don't remove from CC list as it sends mails and updates the bug, rather just tick "never email me".
