            Bug ID: 132689
           Summary: Undo reverts to default formatting after PPA update
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: thrusce at gmail.com

Description:
When I am typing a paragraph in Writer, in a document where I have manually
changed the typeface and font size, and I change my mind about something I have
written, and do a series of <CTRL-Z> or Undo actions, the formatting of the
paragraph reverts to the overall Writer Default from Tools | Options.

For example, if my default is Liberation Serif 12, and I decide I want the
document in Gentium 10, and I make three changes and hit <CTRL-Z> three times,
when I undo the first edit I made, the paragraph, and only that paragraph,
reverts to Liberation Serif 12.

I am not sure if paragraph formatting reverts. I doubt it because it is not
part of the defaults.

I am using 6.4.3.2 on Ubuntu 19.10. I recently upgraded LO to PPA rather than
using the version from the repos, but you can tell that from the version
number. This bug is new since then.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Manually change the text formatting of an entire document.
2. Make several edits.
3. Undo them.

Actual Results:
The undo actions proceed as expected but the last undo action reverts the font
formatting to default instead of the custom font.

Expected Results:
I would expect that the font format would be unaffected by an undo action. This
has been the normal behavior in LO since the beginning.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes
