            Bug ID: 119847
           Summary: Autoselect font size to change it quicker
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.1.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: J22Gim at gmail.com

Description:
When I need to change font size of existing (or new) text, I select the text
(or not) and go to the sidebar panel to the font size. Instead of using the
drop-down menu I simple click inside the box and type the number I want. But
first I have to delete (or select) the currently-in-use number.

It would be more convenient if just by clicking inside the box automatically
selected the number, so I can just click-and-type the new number. This saves
time and is the default behavior or several applications when the user needs to
edit values of different properties (text, sizes, sizes, location, etc.)

I suggest to adopt this "editing help" because it really saves time.


I assume this could apply to many LO applications.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a file and add some text
2. try to change, eg font size without using the drop-down menu

Actual Results:
You can only change font size if you previously erase the current font size.
For this you have to either A) click the size box, erase the current value and
type in the new value, or B) click in the size box, select the current size and
type in the new value.

Expected Results:
As soon as you click into the size box, the size digits (ie the text of the
box) gets automatically selected, so you can just type in the new value without
having to erase or select it manually.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
