------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Oct 24 11:11:57 -0700 2005 ------- This is a serious table handling bug. I almost had to moved back to MS Word. Reproduction: 1.Create 4x4 (or any other) table; 2.Select whole last (or any other) column - right click - cell – merge; 3.Right click the same last column (which is now one cell)- cell - split to 4 rows; 4.Select two top cells of the same column - right click - cell – merge; What the heck is going on? The merged cell lost all its alignment to the rest of the rows of the table and moved to the bottom! This is the bug. Affected use cases: 1.Invoices! I use a table with date, project, description and rate columns. I usually add one or two rows per day. Sometimes I work on several projects that have different rates so I have to merge and split and merge again the rate column. Too bad I can't do that on OOo 2 without wasting my PRODUCTIVITY yet. 2. Documents using tables with merged/split cells where the table row integrity is important. 3. Any other intermediate/advanced table usage. How it should be: I am sorry to say, but please repeat the “reproduction” procedure on MS Word and compare. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
