The problem is that it must be possible to be done by applying another style:
if I've created a style and I use styles with numbered lists and then I want to
return to normal paragraph and normal paragraph has a bunch of formatting in it
of course I don't want to hit Normal style then manually disable all others
trails that remain around because of let's call em "lone formatting" that don't
go away...
Better doing with an example.
I have a file that has a bunch of styles. One is "Normal paragraph" that has a
collection of formattings. Another style is "Structured Numbered List" that has
in it a bunch of different formattings for font, alignment, tabs, etc... and
allows me to create structured numbered lists. So I can create in just one
click a list and sub-lists in it that just work fine.
But if I want to go back to the Normal paragraph than I have the problem
mentioned in the original post. So I have to apply the normal style and also I
have to switch off the numbering.... ugly behavior IMHO. When I change the
style the numbering must be turned off with just that move. If not what's the
point to even to have a style collection of if I have to set every formatting
manually every time? It is pointless. I create a style to apply at once a
complex formatting, to have coherence among all instances. And also when I
change the style all instances (even hundreds or thousands of them) get updated
accordingly. But if I have to modify them by hands.... using styles to regroup
complex formatting is pointless because they lose the coherence, overall in
complex documents...
Hope I explicated well my point of view this time. Maybe cause I'm not good
enough at English (my mother tongue is Italian) frequently I can't express my
thoughts as I have in my mind. I'm deeply sorry for this, so please I beg
everybody to be patient with me. I'm working on my English every day to improve
it as fast as I can, hoping nobody gets offended in the meantime for any
mistake due to my ignorance.</pre>
