Summary0013242: changing text size spinboxes in SE loses focus on intended text (+ mysteriously increments text size +1)
Descriptiontext sizes in Properties or Story Editor should be changed with all options
Text size spinboxes in SE aren't functioning correctly. If one tries to change the spinbox while there is highlighted text, the result is that the text loses it's highlighting.

EDIT: after further testing it was discovered that clicking the spinbox one of more times will increment the highlighted text by 1 but size will not correctly reflect on the PP text size value. This was determined by re-opening the SE and looking at the text value listed.
Steps To Reproduce1) insert text frame
2) write text in frame
3) CTRL+T (edit text in SE)
4) highlight text
5) change text size with text-size spinbox arrows
Result: text no longer highlighted

6) CTRL+W (apply SE changes)
Result: text size is not changed is incremented by 1 but is not reflected in the PP text-size box.
7) CTRL+T
Result: font has been incremented by +1

Additional InformationThese following techniques DO work:

insert text frame
write text in frame
press f2
change text size in properties
text size is changed - ok


insert text frame
write text in frame
CTRL +T (edit text)
Highlight text
enter text size in field
CTRL W
text size is changed - ok
TagsNo tags attached.
PatchNo

Hi ire, thanks for the bug report. FYI, I re-wrote the report to clearly show what the issue was. Some feedback, try to be as clear and concise as you can when reporting. Show what is not working first (and if needed show what is working as a comparison). Write the ticket summary to be be as succinct with the bug as possible. Thanks!

Also if you can add a screenshot/screencast it would raise the chances of the bug getting fixed.

Found the incremental bug as I was confirming the original bug.
Occurs on 1.5.1svn r20681 as well.

Update
step 5: Fixed! text remains highlighted.
step 6: Semi-Fixed: text size is not incremented but PP still doesn't reflect change of text size (I think this is 0009373)
step 7: Fixed: text is not incremented.

Looks like what is left from this is:
PP doesn't reflect the font size change made in the SE, not sure if this is by design or not.
I think there are tickets related to this:
0013537
0008725
0009373
0013621
