Summary0014908: changing paragraph styles causes subscripts to be dropped to become normal text.
DescriptionI am testing Scribus for a journal and have set up paragraph styles for first and subsequent paragraphs. Only difference between styles is first line indent.
It was requested I change to first paragraph style throughout document and purely by chance noticed that CO2 was not subscripted.
Then checked the original file and 2 in CO2 was subscripted. I then changed styles while watching the text in question and noticed that the subscripted 2 changed to normal 2 in 1.5.2 and 1.5.3 whenever changing paragraph style.
This is very disconcerting as it is unexpected behaviour that can cause serious embarrassment if not spotted.

Attached is the Scribus file which was recreated tonight to reproduce problem and it worked again.
Steps taken to reproduce:
1. source of text in Libreoffice with subscripts (snip1)
2. highlight, copy from Libreoffice and paste into Scribus. (snip 2). Note, scribus loses subscript whereas all other formatting seems to be retained.
3. CO2 resubscripted with subscript button in properties palette. (snip 3 and 4)
4. paragraph changed to second paragraph style (snip 5) and subscripts revert to non-subscripted.
Also tried saving file between step 3 and 4 but still lost subscript.

Thanks. Now I see what you meant, I thought subscript was changing after changing style in style editor. Your issue is in fact a known issue already logged as 0008772.
