LO 5 Writer: How can I switch off the formatting in the styles and formatting window?

Hi all,

the styles and formattig window shows the style names using their respective styles, which is very annoying (to say the least). Didn't find a checkmark in the tools -> options. How can I switch off this "feature"?

Easily done

1. Tools -> Options -> Advanced: Expert configuration dialog
2. Search string "StylesAndFormatting"
3. highlight the stanza
4. a Boolean, so True is enabled and False is disabled -- the Edit button
will toggle.
5. OK to apply and exit.

Sure it's easy. For someone who knows these settings are hidden in Expert
configuration :wink:

Are these settings described anywhere?
I couldn't find any documentation (either on the Help file or online)...

Tools -> Options -> Advanced: Expert configuration went in at 4.2.0, but we
did not get the search function fully implemented until the 5.0.0 release.
