It still happens in 6.2.1.2
Version: 6.2.1.2 (x64)
Build ID: 7bcb35dc3024a62dea0caee87020152d1ee96e71
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

I played with pressing enter and shift-enter...

and if shift-enter was pressed the formatting goes to the next line.

I highlighted the upper line and told it to change to another format and it
applied formatting outside of the highlighted area...

The whole header and styles stuff ignores highlighting...  if that is by design
it is hostile...

If there needs to be a new paragraph marker to apply formatting to a selection,
it should create paragraph dividers...    If there is no highlighted area, I
can forgive taking the whole line... but it should accept both enter and
shift-enter key as a divider... not blow right past it... if it needs to
convert a shift-enter into an enter  (I know there are linefeeds carriage
returns and some other type of character... and in HTML there is BR and P so
... I think shift-enter is a <BR/> and enter is a <p> but this is insane for
actually editing a document... the editor should be smart enough to deal with
them.  It would be better to treat every enter as closing a <p></p> and have a
different class for them...


I can probably make a video or something... 
This is  not an easy problem to solve... there may be different strategies that
people prefer...  but it is absolutely an error to not respect the highlighted
area when assigning a style...

Either that, or the style needs to be applied without a <p></p>...   If I do  a
highlighted area, I expect only the stuff that I highlight to change... if
something can't be centered do all the changes except for the centering because
I didn't choose a paragraph.
