No, clear direct formatting not only remove character formatting but also paragraph formatting like text alignment > Why should one add a page break after/before text body? Because it's a good feature to have to separate long and outstanding paragraphs that spans almost over the entire page (In reply to Mike Kaganski from <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=138628#c3">comment #3</a>) >This obviously *is* direct formatting, and I bet there was some explicit processing >for page breaks not removed when clearing the direct formatting from >paragraphs.

That is more than just non-sense! LibreOffice is a stand alone office suite with it's own features, behaviour and even remarkable visual efforts of branding! And the users have to bare with this! No user would be helped by keeping a page-brake that is applied to a paragraph when he clears all formatting for this paragraph as no user is been helped when he wants to remove a page-break while he doesn't understand that it is a paragraph formatting. Learning the application is the key!

First the OpenDocument Format allows advanced formatting, than LibreOffice makes exceptions for users of other applications, than we scatter the UI and force the users to mark 10 checkboxes for using a function that is mean to be basic? CLEAR ALL FORMATTING should clear ALL formatting, simple as this!

I agree with the opener, page-break applied to paragraphs should be removed by clearing the direct formatting</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
