Sorry, but I consider that a bad argument. Sure, "default" is a bit
different. That does NOT imply it can't be a radio button like the
rest.
To me, "default" means "whatever is default for this paragraph type"
while the other choices are explicit. (I.e. if you really want a
right-adjusted heading, and so on.)
The problem is not so much that the interface is hard to understand.
(It _is_, but people always learn such stuff after a while. Even
non-latexers
keep a few useful latex commands around. . .)
It is also clunky to use, which is the big killer here.
If I want "centered", I want to click "centered" and be done with it!
I do not want to have to uncheck "default" first.
And I believe most other writers see it the same way.
Agree.
It is also consistent with the text settings where "Reset" (read
Default) is an option like all others in the pop-up menus. In fact to
use a pop-up menu with
No change
Justified
Left
Center
Right
Reset
would increase the consistency. Would this be a possibility?
