Only if you for some obscure reason need to avoid using the dedicated tools, you need to do low-level property fine-tuning, which naturally needs some understanding. I doubt that "I refuse using proper tools, so it's difficult for me to use my own backwards workflow" qualifies as "really obscure and poorly implemented". Additionally, grasping a concept that *page styles are controlled by content* (paragraphs), and that content is the primary entity in text processor, and pages are just something created on demand (so the information about page creation should be connected to something substantial, like content) is actually very useful for anyone who tends to look deeper than most basic usage. Note that the sidebar is just a dialog attached to one side (not centered) and made modeless to allow easier usage. It's controlled by F11; or View->Styles; and one can open and close it just as other dialogs. One may assign individual page styles (e.g. Landscape) to custom menus, or to buttons, or to keyboard shortcuts (just like any other styles in the program), and use those shortcuts when needed. So - well, I still don't see what specifically could be improved (except for your apparent request to "create yet another duplication of the complex functionality implemented into the sidebar" - which would, as just any duplication, increase program complexity).</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
