In Calc there are 2 Selectors for "Colors of text and background". These two could be enhanced by a third "store colors button", SO, THAT if any cell in the sheet is selected (which has selected colors for text and background) by clicking this "Store colors button" the 2 selector are acualised to the cells values. For the purpose of, if then another cell is selected or marked the "stored values" simply can be transferred / applied. kind regards juergen if al cell is selectet, the "Letter- and Background color Selectors" should be actualised to the cells values (to hold them),
Mmh, sounds very useful to me :-). Thanks for reporting. Valid enhancement request -> NEW
This one was for calc only. It would help manual editing / formatting. Further, this Schema / Pattern could be thought over by the programmers: I think users would like a "Store and Recall" - Button Pair to store -for example- a tables formatting and recall it (apply it) to another, to store borders of -i dont know- to another -i dont know- to store "the properties of an entity aof a TYPE" and apply "these properties to an entity of the same TYPE" So the properties of table must not / need not to be applicable to an entity of an entity which is not a table. A catalog could be generated in background / may be stored within the file too: For each new Type of entity -on which the properties are stored by the user- could be evaluated, if a "Recall / Apply to another" entity is requested by button. If none is stored, none should be applied. Kind regards karl
This might be thought over for all libreoffice applications, i forgot. :-)
I think this is very well achieved with the cell styles "New style from selection". Closing.
