Created attachment 189374 [details] Document for reproducing the bug When in track changes mode, * If we select an entire paragraph and switch its paragraph style, no change is recorded. * If we place the cursor at some point within the paragraph and switch the paragraph style, at least one change is tracked (and perhaps sometimes more than one? Or - applying Undo results in yet another tracked change?) In the attached document, try selecting the entire second paragraph and change it from foo to bar. Then, undo, and try doing the same with no selection and the cursor in the middle of the second paragraph. Note the active icons on the Changes toolbar as you do so. Note: This bug is not about DF, i.e. not about Format | Paragraph but about switching between named styles.
For me, it works in both cases: change denoted in as a line in the left margin, and change listed in the "Edit > Track Changes > Manage" dialog.

Did you use the keyboard or the mouse? I used the keyboard and selected up until right before the first char of the subsequent paragraph; maybe that could have something to do with it?

I used triple-click, but just tested your method and now I see the subtle difference: - If you select up to after the final dot, change is recorded/shown. - If you select up to before "This" in the next paragraph (which actually changes the style of the _two_ paragraphs), the change is not recorded/shown. The issue is that changing the paragraph style of more than 1 paragraph at once is not recorded. Marking as "new". This started with libreoffice-7.3.0.0.alpha1, when tracking such a change was first implemented. László actually mentioned that limitation already in bug 144272 comment 5: > Note: selecting multiple paragraphs to modify their > styles at once doesn't record the changes, yet, because > multi-paragraph ParagraphFormat redline range hasn't > supported by AppendRedline().
Dear Eyal Rozenberg, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!
