Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 62904
Previewing fonts, etc. like in WordPerfect
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:40:05 UTC
For the past few versions WordPerfect has had a feature by which, if you have a section Selected and you hover over a font or a formatting feature (e.g., a different line spacing),the selected passage shows those changes temporarily, until (for example) you move to another font. This way, you can see immediately what the change would look like and it makes it easier to decide if you indeed want that change. This seems to me to be a very worthwhile feature to add.
This one is the same as issue 24981. But it is described MUCH better.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on my owner to the owner "requirements".
