What I mean is "Update to Match Selection" - being the command name I see. I'd not verture more, esp. since when it does work, it is not confined to selection.

In the Windows desktop application Word from a 365 subscription, the command is available for the Normal style.

I can confirm that the Update Normal to Match Selection command works in Word 365 (updated to version 2509, running on Windows 11), after direct formatting has been added to a paragraph which uses the Normal style.
