The redefine function is flaky.

Occasionally (Twice, actually) I’ve got it to work, but most times it doesn’t.

- Create new paragraph
- Creat newly formatted text
- Click on the text
- Format/Style/Redefine Style from Selection/Select Style
- Save Paragraph Style, Include Font Family/Size
- Click on “OK”

Then nothing happens. Style is not redfined and other paragraphs not updated.
