Jacob Bowers <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from Jacob Bowers <[email protected]> --- Configuration: Windows 10 (64-bit) AOO412m3(Build:9782) - Rev. 1709696 Steps to replicate: 1. Open a new OpenOffice document. 2. Click “insert” in the taskbar and then go to table. 3. Use the provided wizard to create a table (size does not matter). 4. Click into the table as if you were about to write in it. 5. A menu should come up hovering a few inches from the table. 6. There is a button towards the bottom right that specifies table properties. Click it. 7. Click on the “borders” tab 8. On the bottom right there exists the “Merge adjacent line styles” checkbox, checked by default 9. Close this document and open the sample document 10. Repeat steps 2-8 for creating a table and examining the “Merge adjacent line styles” checkbox 11. It is now unchecked by default I can confirm this issue still persists in this version. As mentioned, this issue causes a huge pain when viewing and editing documents created by other users. I would like to specifically note that in the sample document, one needs to insert a new table rather than inspect one of the default, pre-existing tables. Those have the checkbox checked by default and can fool a tester into thinking this bug has been fixed (it hasn’t). I did some exploratory testing to try to isolate the cause of the bug to little avail. I mainly was trying to check if the “merge adjacent line styles” setting persists from one table to another in the same document. I created a table, unchecked the box, and created another one below it and examined the setting. It was re-checked by default. I then deleted the tables and created a new one where the original (and unchecked) table was to see if this is a location-based bug. The new table (still) had the setting checked. Strange. The creation and deletion of tables (with or without order) has no effect on the default in the document and there doesn’t seem to be a global setting for this value. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
