Okay, so the "Reset Formatting" button doesn't remove formatting but reverts the formatting back to what the styles say it should be. This works for all formatting, including text but not just text. You can reset the defaults themselves with Edit > Defaults > Factory Reset. This will also reset the text styles to whatever the defaults are. To reset formatting to the document defaults, you can use Edit > Defaults > Revert, or the Revert Defaults button in the top toolbar. We have had bugs in the past where specific formatting wouldn't clear if that happens again please report it. After clicking it, it should just have the names of the styles. It will also make the effect of Reset Formatting more apparent. If you do that it should give a more detailed description of what formatting the text has. The control to the left of the Reset Formatting icon can be expanded. It's very much a text styles thing it's label should be understood in the context of the panel it is in. If no text styles are applied, it does nothing. Reset Formatting should have the same effect as reapplying both of them. There are potentially two styles, for paragraph and character. It removes any local formatting that doesn't come from the styles. The intended behaviour for the Reset Formatting icon in the Text Styles panel is to reset the formatting to the current styles.
It's still not resetting anything that I can see, or to put it another way, the text stays the same - visually - but the document is still marked as "Modified". Note: I reset Publisher - using CTRL on start-up and selecting everything - but I still get the same issues with the "Reset Formatting" button as I showed in my second post in this thread. And the faster the bugs are squashed, the quicker Serif gets a release-ready product and can start getting paid. The faster we find real bugs - rather than chase our tails on unknown (but only unknown to us) quirks - the quicker the developers can get round to fixing them. If someone copying/pasting from a design/test document into the Help is all we can get then that might be enough to give us a start in figuring out what's going on.Ī few minutes of someone's time adding something to the documentation - even if it's just some rough notes - might save hours of a tester's time repeatedly going over the same stuff trying to figure out what's happening. Otherwise there's no way for us to know what we are testing or whether we're testing it properly. I totally understand that the documentation for the beta versions will not be complete but there should be some way for beta testers to know what each function does - and, just as importantly, doesn't do - so we can perform some decent testing.
I would prefer to hold off logging this as a bug until I find out that it is actually a bug and not simply expected behaviour. I might try resetting my installation of Publisher at the weekend and seeing if that does anything. to Paragraphs" not preserve the formatting? It seems to say, in the context as it is next to two functions that specifically preserve formatting, that it won't preserve formatting, but it actually does (as far as I can tell). to Paragraphs and Preserve Local Formatting" both preserve the formatting of the characters, then shouldn't "Apply. to Paragraphs and Preserve Character Formatting" and "Apply. Note 2: I can also do it in the Text Styles studio by selecting the paragraph style, then selecting it again (for some reason that I don't understand), then selecting character style, then selecting my original paragraph style but, again, that's more long-winded than I would expect.Īn associated question, which I've already alluded to is: If the Text Styles studio context menu functions "Apply. Note 1: I've found that I can select the text (or the whole frame), then use the context bar to choose the paragraph style as and then the character style as and then re-apply the paragraph style that I want but that's a long procedure just to re-apply the original style. The paragraphs were formatted using the paragraph style called "First", then two inner sentences of the first paragraph were formatted using the character style called "Strong".
