            Bug ID: 130719
           Summary: Overwriting Writer styles does not overwrite changes
                    to Marginalia paragraph style
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: jedimmel at gmail.com

Description:
If you make changes to the Marginalia paragraph style (along with other
paragraph styles like Text Body and Heading 1), and you decide to revert back
to the original default template styles, loading styles from the Default
template and specifying Overwrite, does NOT actually overwrite the Marginalia
style like it does the other styles.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change some paragraph styles in Writer (i.e. make default font Times New
Roman & Text Body have 18 pt indent)
2. Change Marginalia paragraph style (in my initial case I changed the indent
from 113.4 pt indent to 72 pt and gave it a colored Area of Light Gray 5)
3. Save the changes
4. Go to Styles, Load Styles, select Styles category and Default template,
check the boxes for Text, Frame, Pages, Numbering, and (especially) Overwrite,
then clock Ok

Actual Results:
The paragraph styles that you changed are reverted back to their settings in
the Default template, EXCEPT for the Marginalia style, which retains the
changes you made to the style in your document

Expected Results:
I expect that ALL the paragraph styles should revert back to their settings in
the default template.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

I want to add that I'm not sure which version this first occurred in. I do
frequently reload the default styles, but I haven't used the marginalia style
too much before so never had a chance to notice before.

Also, I just completely reinstalled LibreOffice a few days ago (2020-02-12),
completely uninstalling it and wiping it's user profile, so this is (minor some
minor configuration changes I made) a new install.
