1. Create a new presentation 2. Draw a shape (rectangle, circle, etc.) 3. Right click -> "Edit Style" 4. Change something; I checked this with changing the area fill and line style 5. Click OK 6. Press ctrl-Z or Undo from the Edit menu Expected: the change is undone Actual: it undos the previous change, i.e. the drawing of the shape if you followed my instructions (This made #88920 rather more annoying) This is inherited from OpenOffice; checked with OO 4.1.1.
So you want the undo to revert your changes to the style? That is dramatically different from how undo currently behaves so I think this would be an enhancement request.
You can call it an enhancement request if you want, and I don't know how things are implemented. But from a user's perspective, I don't view it as different from undoing any other change. I made a change to the document; "undo" doesn't undo that change. I'm not asking for "undo" to revert some extra-document action like a change to program options or something like that (see Adobe Lightroom for a program where undo takes actions like that).
I'll get a second opinion about this one and come back to it. I'd say that it's either between a minor bug (slows down professional quality work but won't prevent it) or an enhancement request. I'll ping the QA list to get additional input. Thanks for your understanding.
Talked to a colleague on the QA team and he agreed that it's an enhancement. Marking as such
In Writer, after editing styles, you _can_ undo. But that does not always work.. A bit _buggy_ imo ;)

In my Opinion this is a Bug, because it's working sometimes. I list here, what is working and what not. If there would be nothing working, I would say it's an enhancement, but with this list, I would say its a Bug. (I didn't test every setting, this is only an Overview) I changed the importance to "normal" Working: Calc: Change name of a Style Changing Parent Change Font Change Font Effects Aligment Border Background Cell Protection Draw: Nothing found, not all Tested Writer: Change highlighter Color Indents and Spacing Alignment Text Flow Font Font effects Position Outline and Numbering Gradient Transparency Border Not Working: Calc: Tab "Numbers" changing Draw: Background Line Change name of a Style Change Parent of a Style Font Transparency Writer: Change name of a Style
Still an issue in 5.4.3.2. I also recall undo working for changes to styles *sometimes* but not always, though I haven't tested it systematically.
