Re: [Solved] Re: [libreoffice-users] Styles pane in Writer

I discovered my mistake, and it is truly embarrassing.

I use both LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice and, apparently, it is in the OpenOffice fork that the 
style box won’t come up in the “hierarchical” form. So far, it’s working just fine in Libre.

Hi :)
Intermittent problems are still problems.  If someone has a similar issue in the future this thread 
may give them ideas to try or may build into being part of a pattern that identifies exactly 
when/if the problem happens to make it easier to post a precise bug-report that is not so tricky to 
find&fix

So, good work and congrats :)
Regards form
Tom :)

  I take that back. I just reopened Writer, and it came back to "hierarchical" Weird, because I 
never seemed to do that in the past.

  I'm confused. Sorry I bothered y'all.

  I keep it open all the time as well, but it never comes back to
  "hierarchical" when I reopen Writer.

I have is that when I call up the Styles pane (F11), it typically lists the styles by "Automatic" 
by default. I then always change it to list the styles in a "Hierarchical" fashion. I would love to 
have the styles listed hierarchically by default, but I haven't found a way to achieve this.

      I also use styles in Writer all the time. There are a few things
  that I do. I dock  the Styles and Formatting pane (F11) on the left side
  of LibreOffice. I do not close it before closing LibreOffice. (I
  personally use "Applied Styles" all the time.) When I open Writer, this
  pane opens showing Applied Styles.
      I use the Debian LO download from LibreOffice. I do not know
  whether keeping the Styles pane open all of the time will make
  "Hierarchal Styles" the default value on a Windows OS. It does seem to
  work on Ubuntu.
