Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 45396
"Apply" button in "Appearance" box
Last modified: 2014-05-03 08:57:09 UTC
Hello ! It'd be a good idea to add, in Tools : Options : OpenOffice.org : appearance, an "Apply" button, so that the user could easily try different sets of colours, without making the "Appearance" box disappear by clicking "OK".

I'm not the original reporter, but I also can see the lack of an apply button as a problem
There are several other requests for "Apply" buttons dating back to 2001. I'm posting this message in all of them. Does anyone know an effective way to join them, to add the votes, to raise visibility with developers ? These are found looking for the word "Apply" in the subject: 2374 (ui) add Apply button in Options to avoid having to re-drill down 10173 (Drawing) Apply button to dialogs 15582 (Word processor) Implement 'Apply changes' option 24443 (Word processor) change button name of style catalog: ok -> apply 45396 (framework) "Apply" button in "Appearance" box 51333 (framework) Add "Apply" button to dialogs "Tools-Options" and "Tools-Customize" 67133 (framework) apply button in options tab 67848 (Chart) add a button 'Apply' on the dialog 'Object Properties' In the meantime, I hope you'd consider voting for all of them. Thanks, Edgardo.
IMHO apply changes immediately is better than adding button. AOO410m14(Build:9760) - Rev. 1573062 2014-03-01_04:11:01 - Rev. 1573123 Debian
