Reproducible with LO 4.4.0.3, Win 8.1

This would be a good improvement.

After each Heading (Heading 1, Heading 2) the style that folows is "Text body". It's very easy to change that with just 2 clicks: Modify Heading 3 and change "Text body" to "Heading 4".

So, is this a bug?...

> So, is this a bug?...
Bogdan, this bug report is for the Set Paragraph Style combobox in the Formatting toolbar. Clicking at the triangle, the preview list shows a short list of paragraph styles including Heading 1, Heading 2 and Heading 3. The issue is: When user selects Heading 3 for a paragraph and opens this style preview after that, it would be helpful if Heading 4 would be shown additionally. Because it's possible that the user needs a fourth heading level when using the third.
