            Bug ID: 107673
           Summary: UX: Workflow of changing border color using the table
                    toolbar
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
Changing the color (or border style) of a table row with the toolbar is quite a
hassle and a bit counter intuitive (in my opinion)

After selecting the table row I must first apply the color (and border style). 
Only 3 out of 4 borders change. (Note that the borders which have to change
can't be preset and the made choice isn't permanent.) To change 3 to 4 I have
to click toolbar borders button and select then "set all Borders and inner
lines"
If I want to do the same again for a different row, I have to start all over
again. 

The Word workflow has more logic in it (in my opinion). I can reapply the same
border settings, by simply clicking to borders button again.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice
2. Insert a table (4 rows)
3. Click the second row
4. Change the inner and outer border color for all borders to - for example -
red
5. Now select row 4 repeat step 4

Actual Results:  
The process of making border changes is quite cumbersome. 


Expected Results:
Less steps to reach the same goal 


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No
