Description: An important feature is absent. In Google Docs if you right lick a word in a document there is an option to select all text with the same formatting as the clicked word. I have to import documents to google docs when i need to do this. In LibreOffice Writer there is an option to search by manually listing all the formatting attributes to find text with, but this takes time and you can't really be certain about all attributes in a large document. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Write click a text in a document (or select some text) 2.Select "select with the same formatting" (or click a button "select with the same formatting" Actual Results: No option Expected Results: The option Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Important
Realistically, how many different formatting options would be used, in a situation where "Search and Replace" is too inconvenient? In my opinion, this is not necessary because: - LibreOffice promotes the use of Styles, which then makes it easy to select all text with the same style - If a style wasn't used, Search and Replace can search for any combination of formatting attributes This was requested in bug 94989 and closed when pointed to the Search and Replace option, so I am marking as a duplicate. (Related is bug 76202 but that was about styles, with the same solution.) Requests to add Character, List and Styles to the dialog are bug 78582, bug 106881 and bug 106884 respectively. But please feel free to add to bug 94989 if you think you can make a strong case for an enhancement of the sort. Thank you! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 94989 ***
Can i make another argument, without this feature LibreOffice Writer simply does not suit certain task. Like quick formatting of poorly formatted large documents. I see commands like "select to beginning of a word" and "to the end of line" are implemented. This command\feature is really missed for certain tasks.
OK, but please reopen the original bug 94989 and let's keep this one as a duplicate. Add your supporting argument there. We can then copy the UX/Design team in for their opinion. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 94989 ***
