many + signs
Tested:
In OpenOffice, create a small table with text in cells a1, a2, b1, b2, c2.
Copy only the rows of the table.
Paste into VE.
* the view immediately in VE is of unusable information and some "+" characters
apparently indicating cell boundaries.
Version:1.0StartHTML:0000000155EndHTML:0000000881StartFragment:0000000475EndFragment:0000000864➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞a1➞➞➞b1➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞➞a2➞➞➞b2➞➞➞c2➞➞➞
* the view in the "Review your changes" panel is of a swath of white space with
the contents of the table interspersed.
* User tendency is to copy entire contents of rows, yielding many empty cells.
VE dutifully tracks these empty cells and displays an enormous number of "+"
symbols in the immediate view and mostly empty space in the "Review your
changes" view.
* Upon save, no table is in the page when pasting from OpenOffice.
Other anomalous results are reported when pasting from the Apple Pages
application. From another user:
"...number of cells didn't match the number of columns. Since they don't match,
tried to delete the cells in order to recover the blank page, but they won't
delete."
