All features are convenience features. One can always edit an ODF file manually. The use of this term is suspicious. > Cell formatting is preferably done per cell style. Cell formatting is application of style + DF.

This bug was opened about the fact that clone-formatting _does_ affect the merged state - it breaks up the cells. You're claiming that it doesn't? That's nonsensical. In fact, in the design meeting, the conclusion was that the clone-formatting _should_ affect the merged state. 2. This bug is about cloning DF, not cloning styles. Given that the cells are broken up, the complaint is that the DF is applied to just one of them. 3. No, the style is _not_ applied to all of the cells! Just to the first one. If you change the style of D3 in the reproduction instruction to some other style (e.g. "my_style" with a blue background) - only the first of the broken-up cells will get "my_style" and the blue background; the rest will remain in Default Style. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
