If a writer-file is created in windows explorer (file -> new -> writer
document), after opening the document, the default font is always times new
roman, no matter what was stored in settings (extras - options - oo writer -
basic fonts)

MRU->OS: as described, the default font settings are ignored when creating a new
document via Windows desktop. This maybe also related to issue 29485.

Windows XP Pro - OOo 2.4.1

Isn't this one a duplicate of Issue 40233 (already 5 votes)?

(@hagar_de_lest: You are right - thank you. Its a duplicate of Issue 40233 )

A last note from me in this Issue:
I am unhappy that Issue 40233 seems to be ignored since 4 years, and that it
gets suggestions like 'change documentation to change bug to a wanted feature'.

For me, this defect makes OO-writer unhandy. It is important for me to create
documents into its different final storage places in folder trees, drives and
over the network. I do not have the time to search the path for each document in
"save as" dialog. (Try it for more than 10 documents and you get nerved).
