This problem still exists in LO 5.3.3.2. My opinion is, that it is very illogical and distracting that the background button in the table toolbar sets the paragraph background color and not the cell background color.
In this bug report in comment 2 from sophie I found in the first place the ability to resolve this issue: That I have to select the cell first and can then do the backgound operations with the button in the table toolbar. It should be enough, to put the cursor in a cell to change its background color. I think in the table toolbar should be only functions which deal with table- and not with paragraph-settings. In the breeze-icon-set there should be two different icons for the buttons for cell- and paragraph-background, too. It would be useful too, if the functionality would be the same in "table-toolbar -> background color" and in the table-properties-dialogue ->Background-settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1485955 Title: [upstream] EDITING: Background Color button from Table toolbar should change cell background instead of paragraph background To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/1485955/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
