            Bug ID: 120031
           Summary: REGRESSION: LibO 6.1 format->character dialog
                    overrides font size to two making chars unreadable
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sergio.callegari at gmail.com

Description:
Suppose that you have a piece of text including words in different sizes (e.g.
12 pt and 14 pt) and that you want to change all that piece of text to another
font, maintaining the different font sizes. 

Until LibO 6.0 you could highlight the piece of text and do Format->Character.
There, you would get a blank slot for the font size (because the higlighted
text included text in multiple font sizes). By selecting a new font name, you
could change the font look, while maintaining the original font size.

If you do this with LibO 6.1 as you change the font name and press OK, you see
the text disappear. In fact, the text is not disappearing, but the dialog is
applying a font size 2 (almost invisible) to the whole text.

The issue is present in all applications (write draw calc and impress), but
happens in a slightly different way in writer and calc, where the char sizes
get equalized and shown by the property pane as being set to two, while the
chars keep being drawn at a readable size (which is revealed by tring to change
the value in the property pane).

The issue started with 6.1. Previous LibO versions (5.4 and 6.0 tested) did not
have this problem.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open draw
2. Create a text box including the words "One Two", make "One" 10pt and Two
20pt
3. Select "One Two", Open Format->Character
4. Change the font name press OK


Actual Results:
See the text disappear and verify that it is actually there in font size 2

Expected Results:
As in LibO up to 6.x, you should see the text in the new font, still with "One"
at 10pt and "Two" at 20pt


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
