Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer Character styles: "Default Paragraph Font" vs "No Character Style" vs "- None -"

Hi John,

isn't it?).

Yes and No, this Character Style is called "Default" in older 
LibreOffice versions.

The "Default Paragraph Style" is sort of the mother of all paragraph 
styles, IMHO it should not be used, but "Text Body" instead.

Unfortunately, I did not understand your last paragraph (sorry). Why vs?

Here is some more, I hope, helpful information:
