Hello: Bugzilla requires that I select a component and it is possible that I have selected incorrectly. If this bug reaches you and this is not the bug for you please accept my apology. I have Abiword 2.8.6-0.3ubuntu2 installed on Ubuntu 11.10 via Synaptic on a Gateway laptop. While using Unity Desktop: I open Format > Create and Modify Styles... > New which gives me the document window plus a New dialog box and a New Style dialog box. I want to edit the text-align property for which I need to select 'paragraph' from the Format drop-down list in the lower right corner of the New Style dialog box. As soon as I open the 3rd dialog box, all three open dialog boxes freeze. If I only open 2 dialog boxes, New and New Style, I can edit settings, close the dialog boxes and continue to use Abiword. I installed Gnome Desktop and experienced the same result. If I could edit the text-align property without having to open the 3rd dialog box I could accept this solution as a work around.
can't reproduce on Fedora. But Ubuntu is a different story. If somebody can debug that...
