simple writer document with text body surrounding a table

(In reply to Rainer Bielefeld from comment #1)

> @V Stuart Foote:
> Can you please attach a sample document and contribute a more simple, more
> clear instruction? Currently I do not know what might be "the text body",
> "mouse over" where (ruler? table?), additionally some other obscurities,

1.) open a new writer document
2.) ensure horizontal ruler and vertical ruler are active (tools -> options ->
OpenOffice Writer -> View  in the View panel Ruler check boxes)
3.) enter a couple of blank paragrahs with return key
4.) insert a table (5col x 4rows) from the standard menu drop down, or use the
Table -> Insert menu.
5.) on insert the table object will have focus, text cursor will be in the
first cell (1,1) of the table. The horizontal ruler will show column hashes.
The vertical ruler will show row hashes marking the widths and heights
respectively. And, the Table pop-up dialog will be open.
6.) move text cursor out of the table into the text body. The table does not
have focus.
7.) Horizontal ruler will change to show only tab stops and margins. Vertical
ruler will show only spacing below top margin. Table dialog will close.
8.) to exhibit the issue: 

a.)move mouse pointer onto a table column edge--the mouse over action 'Adjust
table column' will fire, click and hold the <left> mouse button to grab the
column edge--and the horizontal ruler will toggle into table mode showing the
column hashes. Reposition the hash--on release the ruler will hold new position
of the hash and the table will adjust width of column. Focus and text cursor
remain in the text body. This is correct.

b.) move mouse pointer onto a table row edge--the mouse over action 'Adjust
table row' will fire, click and hold the <left> mouse button to grab the row
edge--the vertical ruler will toggle into table mode showing the row hashes.
Reposition the hash--on release the ruler holds new position of the hash.
However the table does not update to the new row height and the vertical ruler
remains active in table mode showing the new row height hashes but the table is
not updated. It seems like the vertical ruler is holding for an update to the
table. The text cursor remains as before in the text body. A <left> mouse click
releases the vertical ruler and returns focus to the text body.

For layout adjustments to table when the table is not the active object--the
behavior of both column and row mouse over actions should be the same.

When text cursor is located in a table cell and the table has focus the mouse
over actions are the same. Specifically, the 'Adjust table row' heights are
immediately applied to the table.
