Description Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2014-12-25 13:42:23 UTC
In LO 3.3, the 'Edit Styles' context menu option opens a dialog titled 'Graphic Styles' and then later on it was changed to 'Image Styles'. In 4.3, the styles & formatting dialog changed the style category to 'Drawing Object Styles' but the dialog title wasnt changed.

This should be a bug not enhancement.
Comment 2 Stanislav Horacek 2014-12-25 21:30:24 UTC
Confirming, this appeared in 4.3 series (tested in 4.3.4.1).
Comment 3 A (Andy) 2014-12-25 23:25:46 UTC
Reproducible with LO 4.4.0.0.beta1 and 4.3.4.1 (Win 8.1).

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open IMPRESS
2. Insert an image and select it and make a right mouse click
3. Go to EDIT STYLE in the context menu

-> Title of the dialogue box: "Image Styles: ..."

4. Go STYLES AND FORMATTING in the Sidebar
5. Move the mouse over the left icon under title "Styles and Formatting" in this Sidebar section

-> Name: "Drawing Object Styles"

As it changed from 'Graphic Styles' to 'Image Styles' and currently 'Drawing Object Styles' is 'Drawing Object Styles' suitable to also cover image styles? I was thinking to change it to Image/Drawing Object Styles.

No. The initial change was wrong, as it was mass-replaced without care. Please revert it to “Graphic Styles”, which is shorter.

Do I understand it right, that you mean that the renaming from the term Graphic to Image was wrong?  If yes, why was this wrong?

Again: because the term was mass-replaced without enough care. This specific instance was a wrong change.

Generally, I think it is good to use one notation in order to not irritate users, if there is no specific reason.  But could you maybe help me why in this specific case Graphic is better than Image, because in other dialogues we find now the term Image?  You write it is wrong in this specific instance, but why?  I only want to understand it better.  Thanks a lot in advance for your help.
