Since LO 4, paragraph style edition UI has been modified and there is several glitches to fix. The dialog UI looks like a draft. The style dialog has been stretched vertically, creating a lot of unused spaces and on several tabs widgets had been compressed in shrunk spaces, creating more unused spaces. This is particularly visible on the tab Position. On tab Organizer, the bottom lines of drop-down lists are not visible. See screenshot attached. These glitches are particularly visible on Windows, a little less on Linux.

Those are from the new widget padding in the full variant of font tab. I think additional Font/Size/Style/Language label rows should be just thrown out, as I doubt someone will actually use them for keyboard navigation there.

A lot of issues here, so I'll take this on the "too much vertical space" angle

That should take care of the high height issue for western-font only.
Looks good on 4.1.1.1. Thanks.
