------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Oct 4 16:09:53 +0000 2008 ------- OO 2.4.1 Win-XP-SP3 Intel x86 processor I believe that I have encountered a defect in the way that user-defined Table Autoformats are saved. Apparently, some of the settings are saved, and not others. This means that I still have to manually adjust certain settings for every table, even after Autoformatting, which drastically limits the utility of that functionality. Step-by-step instructions, which unfailingly produce the fault on my own system, follow. -- run OO Writer -- File | New | Text Document -- Table | Insert | Table -- Size: Columns: (6), Rows: (6) -- OK -- Table | Select | Table -- Table | Table Properties... -- Table tab | Alignment: (Left) -- Text Flow tab | (check) "Allow table to split", (UN-check) "Allow row to break" -- Borders tab | Line: (0.50 pt), Spacing to contents: (L 0.04, R 0.04, T 0.02, B 0.02) -- OK -- Table | AutoFormat... -- Add -- (Test), OK -- OK -- File | Close | Save -- (arbitrary name and logical location), OK -- File | New | Text Document -- Table | Insert | Table -- Size: Columns: (6), Rows: (6) -- OK -- Table | Select | Table -- Table | AutoFormat... -- (Test) | OK -- Table | Table Properties... -- Inspection reveals that, for the Borders tab: Line: (0.50 pt), Spacing to contents: (L 0.02, R 0.02, T 0.02, B 0.02) -- Inspection reveals that, for the Text Flow tab: (check) "Allow table to split", (check) "Allow row to break" -- This indicates that L-R spacing and row check box settings were not saved properly This problem makes the Table Autoformat functionality almost useless to me, since I still have use the Properties dialogue box to set multiple settings, even after I apply an Autoformat. I am hoping that this defect is already being corrected in OO 3.0, but I thought that I'd report it, just to make sure that developers were aware of it. Thanks for your work on this excellent effort. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
