Description Philippe Morin 2011-12-25 19:02:41 UTC
Problem description: I tried to create a new style (using cmd-T, then clicking on "New style from Selection") with five highlighted paragraphs and LibO froze.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Highlight/select 5 different paragraphs between other ones scattered throughout the text. (using cmd + double click).
2. Create a new style from the selection, using the "New style from Selection" button.
3. Give a name to the new style
4. Click "OK" button.

Current behavior: LibO freeze.

Expected behavior: Creation of a new style and assignation of this new style to the previously selected paragraphs.

I should clarify the steps : 3. Give the name "vote sur une proposition" to the new style.

Maybe this had something to do with the length of the name. I retried with a different name and it worked.

@Philippe Morin:
please:
- Attach a sample document containing the source paragraphs (not only screenshot)
- Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the 
  problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots
  into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show
- add information 
  -- concerning your PC
  -- concerning your OS (Version, Distribution, Language)
  -- concerning your LibO localization (UI language)
  –- Libo settings that might be related to your problems 
    (video hardware acceleration ...)
  -- how you launch LibO and how you opened the sample document
  -- everything else crossing your mind after you read linked texts
