--- Comment #5 from ajlittoz <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Regina Henschel from comment #3) > Bug 55651 has the request to continue with the style of the previous page. > But that will not work in case of "only left" and "only right". This why I suggest to use the Next style. > Having a dedicated style for automatically inserted pages is a nice idea. > But it needs an indication, that it is no regular page style. By "dedicated style" do you mean a single "document-wide" page style for that? But "auto pages" need to be different after front cover, TOC or running chapter. If your idea is to designate some style in the Organizer tab, as suggested in a comment in bug 55651, OK. However I see a difficulty. "Auto-pages" are special and you can't edit them (at least presently). How can we customise such "auto-pages" once inserted? Assigning them a page style is only half of the story. Header, footer and text need some user entry. In my present state of thinking, such entry is common to all such pages, the same as a header is shared by all instances of pages under the same style. The process should remain as automatic as possible. If every "auto-page" must be manually customised, we fall back to some form of direct formatting (similar IMHO to vertical spacing with empty paragraphs). That is, once the special page style is configured for its usual "geometric" properties, contents of header, footer and text should also be part of this configuration so that "auto-pages" are added the same as present blank pages and typist doesn't care for them in any way. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
