> Chapter 20 contains attributes and elements of <style:*-properties> elements. These are child elements of the <style:style> element. As such they are subject of the inheritance described in section 16.2. If an attribute does not exist in the <style:style> element, which is referenced from the element, which is to be formatted, the value is used, which you get by the inheritance algorithm. The last level in the inheritance chain is described as âIf there is no value specified in that default style, an implementation-dependent value is used.â
>  
> But some of the items in chapter 20 have wordings like âThe default value is 90deg.â (20.2 chart:angle-offset) or âThe default value is true if svg:width and svg:height attributes are not specified.â (20.4 chart:auto-size)
> What does âdefaultâ mean in context of inheritance? It cannot mean, that the âdefaultâ is used, if the <style:style> element, which is referenced by the element, has no formatting information for this formatting aspect, because that would contradict the desired inheritance.
> It can mean, that on the last level of inheritance the âdefaultâ value is used. But currently that is not specified.
> This proposal adds a rule about such "default" values to section 16.2 <style:style>
