I agree that the software has to start from some kind of default
settings. But creating a new template with the user's default
preferences only works if the user is prepared to go through the lengthy
number of clicks I outlined above.
Earlier today, I opened a blank spreadsheet, changed.the font on the default style, saved the file as a template, and then designated the template as the default for spreadsheets. Yes, it took a more than a few clicks, but I accomplished the entire process in about a minute. I have taken the time to learn how to use LO's styles and remplates. Since this is how the program works, it was time well spent. By spending a minute to create my own template, I have saved myself time later by directly changing the font in every spreadsheet I create.
