Bug ID: 169737
Summary: bad by design: assigning a table style apply direct
formatting of the table content
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.0.0 alpha0+ master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Assigning a table style applies direct formatting to the table's contents,
which is in direct conflict with proper document editing principles.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. You have defined a style for the table content. And you have a table.
2. Now you open the table styles panel and assign a style to the table, for
example Academic.
Actual Results:
The text inside the table is reformatted using direct formatting and therefore
ignores your defined style.
Expected Results:
Text inside a table is not formatted with direct formatting.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
This is completely pointless and goes against the principles of using styles.
You must then select the table and remove the direct formatting with the
keyboard shortcut Ctrl+M, otherwise you risk future problems. If you do not do
this, it will prevent you from subsequently editing the table content
uniformly.
