hi, it would be great if we could see our favorite styles... if we could mark them as favs, and activate a view with our fav styles listed... Alternatively, instead of marking styles as favs, we could just add styles in the fav styles pane (tab) to the list... - - - - thank you for developing libreoffice and writer --
+1, like the idea. Expect this would need to be per user and cached to user profile. Unsure if we could currently assign within individual document or template, so may be limited and only annotate styles from current project default styles as localized. Need dev advice on effort to add per document and user's custom styles. Either case, could be a good UI enhancement to the F11 Stylist to read as users 'favorites' from their profile and show just those styles to compose with. At least for Paragraph and Character styles. But possibly all style categories.
I wonder what a favorite style could be. First of all you probably talk about paragraph styles, and you have a template with "numerous" Body Text styles that you use depending on the scenario. Hard to follow. And how could such a marker work thinking of a hierarchy where most styles are hidden under the collapsed parent. Or hidden by the filter, eg. "Automatic" or "Used in Document". The tree and the the filter are sufficient means to control the list of styles. And while a star icon has some charm design-wise the benefit on UX is limited. Let's rather not do.
