--- Comment #10 from Eyal Rozenberg <eyalr...@gmx.com> --- This was discussed in the design meeting this evening, but - not in a satisfactory manner IMHO. Here's what the minutes say: > + merging cells with the keep option does exactly this, we > must not format hidden cells this bug does not regard the merging action, so either this sentence is incorrect or I misunderstand it. > + copying/cloning merged cells takes merge state into account, > however, applying a format via cell style, which is the supposed > workflow does not I'm sorry, that does not make sense. This bug is about "clone formatting". If it takes the merge state into account, the answer to Q1 is affirmative. Now, what about Q2? > + cloning the merged state is a convenience feature I don't understand this sentence. Cloning is a feature in LO calc, and you guys decided it also applies the merged or unmerged state. What does it matter whether cloning is a "convenience feature" or not? Given your position, the obvious decision is for the format to apply to all unmerged cells. I haven't read any argument for the alternative in the minutes. And thus I don't understand why you concluded > => WF/NAB rather than will-fix, is-a-bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
