--- Comment #2 from Don Matschull <dmatschull at quietriding.com> ---
Currently, if I set up a right hand page style, there is only a choice for
Header on. When I create a header on the page in the document using this right
hand page style, the cursor goes to the left and the Page Styles area in the
Sidebar indicates that the Header paragraph style is being used. I must change
this to Header Right in order for the cursor to start at the right.

My thought was: It would be a nice enhancement if, when I set up my right hand
page style, I could get the header to automatically use the Header Right page
style rather than the parent Header page style.

I don't know how hard this would be. I just thought I would make the
suggestion. I'm always looking for ways to make writing a document more
efficient. That is why I like the LibreOffice emphasis on styles and encourage
others to use styles rather than direct formatting.

Looking at my illustration after reading your comment, I see that the dialog
says "Page Style: _My Page Style" rather than "Page Style: _My Right Page" or
"Page Style: _My Left Page".
