User fme changed the following: What |Old value |New value ================================================================================ Target milestone|OOo 2.x |OOo Later -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jan 8 01:57:58 -0800 2007 ------- FME: Hmm, looks like the table structure is somewhat weired. By creating the 'separator' the table ends up having a giant repeating headline. This is due to Writer's current table model. Merging a couple of cells vertically and defining a repeated headline generally isn't a good idea. I'll give an example: Starting with a table with seven columns and 20 rows, merging the cells of the forth column gives you this table structure: row cell 20 inner rows with three cells each cell cell 20 inner rows with three cells each So the resulting table consist of only one outer row, which is the repeated headline row. So I guess that most likely this is not what you wanted to achieve when creating your separator, at least not when the table is larger than one page. In the attached bugdoc, the repeated header covers almost the whole page. Anyway, copying a cell selection into a part of a table, which has nested rows does not work, in fact it never seemed to work (checked with OOo 1.0). Workaround is to first copy the cells, then create the 'separator' column. Some more good news: We are currently implementing a new table model (using rowspans instead of nested rows), see i4032. The problem is not existing with this new model anymore. So I tend to change the target to 'OOo later'. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
