Description CarlosF 2022-11-21 20:14:13 UTC
Description:
I did not find a straight way to simply edit a conditional style. The only way I found is indirect: Selecting Format > Conditional > Manage. Then selecting any of the existing condition and atempting to replace the existing style with a new one. Then typing in the inherit box the style I want to edit and selecting then the Edit Style option. It works, but is a very awkward way to do it. I did not fin in the help any other way.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Enter Calc
2.Select Format > Conditional > Manage
3.

Actual Results:
A list of actual existing conditions appear, but there is not a way to edit a particular style.

Expected Results:
There should be a way to edit an existing style without the need of edit (or siumulate to edit) a condition


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
There should be a menu item to direct enter the existing styles and allow edition, at least of user created styles.

You can edit the styles in the sidebar, or Menu/View/Styles [F11]

Thank you Carlos and m.a.riosv. I am making this issue a documentation one, as the conditional formatting help page does not currently link to the Calc styles page:

https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/scalc/01/05120000.html

This should help clarify where such styles can quickly be modified.
