Edit TOC style = crash

[Jpburns]

Trying to edit a TOC style results in a hard crash.

I'm not seeing this can you confirm OS version and maybe supply a sample file please

I'll try to come up with a simple example for testing.

The steps I did are:

1. Make a text box.
2. Insert a table of contents (text really, really tiny, like .2px to start with)
3. Click on newly exposed TOC style and select "edit"
4. Boom!

Ahhh! Try this.

1. Make a document with 4 or 5 pages. Put text on each for the TOC to find.

2. Now before inserting a TOC, go to the styles and select from the dropdown: "Detach and Delete All Styles":

(I'm doing this because I prefer to start from scratch with my styles, to keep it simple)

3. Then insert the TOC. On my setup the text is formatted as really, really tiny (0.2pt) text.

4. Use dropdown on TOC:Entry style to edit style.

5. Boom!

Here's a sample file.

Just do step 4, above, to trigger a crash.

I think it's the detach step causing the problem Thanks for the detailed recipie

[Jpburns]

Absolutely.

This should be fixed, as some user might want to start with a clean slate of styles (I'm one of those) which apparently borks several things that rely on those set styles.
