Description: When I change the style of a paragraph, using the formatting toolbar, for example to make a paragraph a scene break, the edit focus goes to the style name box. Any typing goes into the style name box instead of the main text. Clicking in the text restores focus. Does not happen when changing a style using the sidebar. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Put cursor in a paragraph in a Writer doc. 2. Select a new style using the "formatting" or the "formatting(styles)" toolbar 3. Start typing Actual Results: The new typing goes into the box with the style name, not the main text. Expected Results: The typing should go into the main text, i.e. the paragraph whose style was just changed. (Works correctly if the sidebar is used to change styles) Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Works for both built-in and custom styles.
I was not able to reproduce this. Can you provide a screen shot of the paragraph after you add text using different styles? Also include your version information as I have below.

Confirming the described behavior. Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 6668f6e34860b7f42a1ee06a062496a0cb63ce8e CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 6.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Not sure if this is a bug or if this behavior is by design. The behavior when using the sidebar seems to be more intuitive, so if not a bug then maybe this report can be seen as an ux enhancement request. Adding needsUXEval and leaving as UNCONFIRMED for now. UX Team -- please take a look at this enhancement. Thanks!
