--- Comment #9 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
The FN_AUTOFORMAT_APPLY is ancient StarOffice handling by SvxAutoCorrCfg, not
surprised that its linkage in AutoCorrect GUI for existing (the Modify 'M'
checkbox) only applies between 'Default' and 'Text Body' PS.

So, it requires user to assign selection to 'Default' PS for the AutoCorrection
to apply to existing text--and that the resulting paragraph receives the 'Text
Body' PS.  Enhancement would be to provide user choice of target PS conversion,
or perhaps to not force the conversion at all--an option on the AutoCorrect
dialog.

It is actually pretty handy "feature", but it needs documentation of its
current state, and absent refactoring probably adjustments in the UI (e.g. some
of the 'M' checkboxes should be listed as applicable only to 'Default'
paragraph style ).
