Have two more Screen Shots; but CANNOT Attach…….

Pretty PATHETIC! I report a ‘bug.  You reply (unsatisfactory, needs further help):
I ‘REPLY’ to the eMail….REJECTED….CANNOT BE DELIVERED ?????

Response was NOT Conplete, thoughtful, nor addressed the basic problem.

LibreOffice CALC, is the ONLY component of an AMAZING Application, that INSISTS on setting Font Height to TEN, by default.  All the rest seem to default to the LAST USED FONT Height!

I was told to select the ENTIRE Spreadsheet when Opening a New Instance & then make Preferences (An UNNECESSARY STEP)!  UNNECESSARY, as a sentient human, ALREADY Know how to do this!!!!

Even WORSE; after doing this EXTRA ‘CORRECTION’; if I insert a ROW, the NEW Row Maintains the FONT; BUT REVERTS to TEN POINT HEIGHT.

You need to change the 'Default style' for cells.
And you can save it as default template.

In order to add more screenshots (or other relevant files) to the corresponding bug report, you could go to the report web page for bug 158153 and click on the link to "Add an attachment".

> I ‘REPLY’ to the eMail….

The emails are only for you to receive the info that some change was produced on the bug report. You are not supposed to reply to the emails using emails, but rather go to the web page of the relevant bug report and then either click on the "Add comment" link or use a "reply" link on one (or more) of the prior comments on the same web page.

There are probably more bug reports awaiting for your replies with additional information (which is the meaning of setting a bug report to "needinfo").

I am tempted to close this report, since there is really no real bug reported here and comment 1 already includes the solution to the problem.

@Nik,

Hopefully you read this comment and reply to it in the web page of bug 158153, instead of attempting to send an unwanted email.

this belonged with bug 157902, as noted Calc responds to the default template values in the build source.  

If you need larger font sizes modify your sheet's default style(s) and save as a new template --> .ots document, aka. ODF Spreadsheet Template.

Then open that template when you create a new document using the larger fonts. When saved it will become a new .ods, aka. ODF Spreadsheet of a new filename.

The default template with 10pt size default cell text will remain unchanged.
