Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 66678
Make possible to apply frame styles in a selected text area

The situation. I have a text document with a lot of equations. I want to change left and right spacings of Math Objects only in the selected area of the text. But in this selected area there are not only one equation but several ones. I've pushed F11 (Styles and Formatting) and saw there a frame style called "Formula". I've made a duplicate style "Formula1" but on the tab "Wrap" I've set zero left and right spacings. Then I tried to apply "Formula1" to the selected area. It didn't work. Maybe because Writer can't apply frame styles to the paragraphs. But also I can't select equations only, even using Ctrl or/and Shift. So I think that it should be possible to change spacings in the way: selecting an area with equations, then apply the desired frame style to Math Objects. This enhancement should be very useful for large documents with a lot of equations.
Reassigned to requirements.
