Actually, it's not table. If I put the cursor anywhere in the document, I have the same result. All the options for alignment are greyed out, and default is checked.
Uncheck default then. Default sets the alignment to whatever is preferred for the paragraph type in question. ("standard" is block aligned, headings are left aligned, . . .)
When "standard" is unchecked, the explicit choices becomes possible instead. I can see that this is confusing, it would probably be better to have "standard" being just another radio button along with the others. Helge Hafting
