Description Joel Madero 2012-12-06 22:17:27 UTC
I found this one when I was triaging bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54627

Steps to Reproduce:
Open attachment https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=66768 with 3.6+
Go into Paragraph Styles (F11)
Note the names/number of styles listed
Right click Heading 2
Modify
Look at Indents & Spacing
Note Above paragraph and below paragraph numbers


Open same document with 4+
Repeat steps above and compare notes

What I see:
Completely different set of styles, I don't even have a "Heading 2" I instead see "heading 2" plus a bunch of other ones

Metrics are different

Marking as a regression as well as I believe that a commit in 4 has caused this

Created attachment 71275 [details]
Newly created valid document, everything works fine

I see the effect with parallel installation of  "LOdev  4.0.0.0.beta1   -  GERMAN UI / German Locale  [Build ID: 87906242e87d3ddb2ba9827818f2d1416d80cc7)]"  {tinderbox: @6, pull time 2012-12-06} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) with separate /4 User Profile for Master Branch.

And I have a Grand Unifying Theory:  Attachment 66768 [details] for Bug 54627 simply is a damaged Document, even the reporter failed to reproduce this problem with a new document.

Of course I am a little concerned that the problem is not visible with 3.3.3, but it would not be the first document with very long history containing a damage what was invisible for years and suddenly becomes visible after a fix.

It took only 2 minutes to create a new document, so I currently think we should save our time for REAL bugs.

Of course, if reporter can contribute some evidence that there really is a bug in LibO ...

"Completely different set of styles, I don't even have a "Heading 2" I instead see "heading 2" plus a bunch of other ones"

that is an UI change: the Stylist now has a combo box at the bottom to
select the kind of styles displayed and apparently defaults to
"Custom styles".

"heading 2" is apparently a Custom one.

the "Heading 2" is visible in "Automatic" and in "Applied Styles".
