You are very forgiving. It belongs in Format-> page.
NOT Insert->page breaks->More Breaks->manual breaks->Page Style.
The reason it's there is because in order to change the page format
you have to start a new page. And it's not really there anyway. The
actual landscape setting is part of the style. Format->Page modifies
the page settings for the currently active style. If you switch to
the "Landscape" style, then Format->Page will show that you are in
landscape. I guess you have to understand that LO operates at a
higher level than just basic typing. You can do that, but you
shouldn't, at least if you're writing something more than just a
really basic memo. If you use styles properly, then you can make
global layout and formatting changes easily.
True. And since when do I need to be a rocket scientist to figure
out. That is the issue. It should be in page format,
period. I should not have to learn" what is under the hood to
be able to use the thing.
It's very clear in the documentation. A quick search for "landscape"
gave me:

Oh and on what planet is the orientation of the page
a "paragraph" format?
Are you referring to LO or something else? In LO, the page orientation
is in the page format right where it should be.
Sam,
Do you have any idea how much arguing I had to do to get
LO to move that out of paragraph?
