Description Tin Man 2013-10-18 12:19:05 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
1) Insert some headings (1 to 3 will suffice).
2) Set the font size for the "Heading" style to 12pt. All the headings should change to match.
3) Set the font size for the Heading 2 style to 100%.
4) Set the font size for the Heading style to 18pt. Heading 2 stays at 12pt while the other styles change to match the Heading style's font size.

As I'm setting 100% instead of 12pt, I would expect the style font size to remain dynamic, especially as that's what happens for other percentages entered.

(I've tried it only with paragraph styles, haven't tried with other kinds of styles.)

Font size 100% is still not kept, neither in paragraph nor in character styles. It is replaced with the current font size of the parent.
Tested in Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha1+ (x64)
