Description: UI: separate managing table styles from applying a table style Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Writer 2. Try to access 'Edit Table Style' in AutoFormat Styles Dialog (Menu Table -> AutoFormat Styles) Actual Results: * The Table AutoFormat Styles dialog is directed toward applying a table style to existing table. * The dialog has being changed to allow editing styles (bug 105933) However this introduces a new issue. * You can't access AutoFormat Styles without table present. * Pressing OK in the AutoFormat Styles dialog results in applying the style to the selected table. If only want to change a style without applying it (or for a different table), you have to press Cancel to close the dialog Expected Results: Separate the applying from managing table styles * Allow the AutoFormat Styles to be opened without table selected * A close button dialog button is added, and OK relabeled to 'apply', which disabled if cursor not in a table Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 26.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) Build ID: 680(Build:0) CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded
I vote for removing the AF dialog (at least in Writer).
(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #1) > I vote for removing the AF dialog (at least in Writer). In principle I agree. However, it would practical to list the alternative ways to access the functionality. A) From where can apply table style to existing table? * From the sidebar, I assume. Especially with bug 152481 implemented * Table properties dialog? Bug 170680 * Right Click Context Menu? B) How do you access 'Edit Table Style' * From the sidebar, I assume. Especially with bug 152481 implemented * Table properties dialog? Bug 170680 * Insert Table Dialog? (bug 170713)
