Well it is a line ;)

Confirmed.

There appears to be a maximum size allowed for the style name when it appears in the Styles and Formatting pane.  Perhaps there should be a minimum.

V Stuart Foote, thanks for information.

Screenshots are previews, and if you uncheck "Show previews", 
they will not be reproduced.

This bug is WORKSFORME?
Comment 5 V Stuart Foote 2017-05-10 12:49:55 UTC
Correct, with "Show previews" the list shows the Name of the style rendered with the font and point size assigned to the style. But still a valid issue.

The actual Horizontal lines are a paragraph style with a lower edge border set active, since it is a Paragraph style it has to have font assigned (Liberation Serif, or Tahoma) set at 6pt font size, so when enabled its "preview" (of its name) in the GUI is a bit small.  With preview off, it is rendered in system font at default size.

It should be possible to set a minimum font size for naming the preview, or possibly to use a scalable graphic SVG/PNG.

Setting as an Enhancement.

I think this is a design.
This is the display of the size set in "Horizontal Line."
"Show previews" can be unchucked to make it readable.
