--- Comment #3 from Rainer Bielefeld

I can't see a Bug here, but user error. There is not a reset of format/style or
similar. The contents moved to the other cell simply takes the format of the
target cell, that seems intended to me. 

For a test in EnhancedSampleDocument.ods first check styles in Cells A1 and
A14, then merge A1:B1 and "A14:B14". As expected the contents of new merged
cells takes the format of column A cells.

It helps to know some more about merge cell process. As the message box tells,
there will not be a real merging of A1 and B1. In fact size of A1 will be
increased so that it will cover old cell B1. And if you click [Yes] in Message
box, contents of B1 will be transferred to now double width A1.
This knowledge also explains why Merging B1:C1 will not show Style "demo" of C1
in new merged cell. After merge new double width B1 simply will cover cell C1
with styles frills.

But indeed, Help contents is really poor, I will submit a new bug and add you
to CC.
