            Bug ID: 116674
           Summary: Link table styles to paragraph style
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: high
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Tables are added with the default table style, which is Serif/12 since 6.0 (bug
101349, bug 107554, bug 107555). If the paragraph has different settings, let's
say handwriting style, the table doesn't take this style regardless what is set
in the paragraph style Table Contents. Even worse, every time the table is
modified (add/delete row/col) it's style is reapplied making any direct
formatting pointless. The only workaround is to modify the table style itself,
which is only possible via the legacy feature of autoformatting. Unchecking
font in the legacy autoformat dialog is overridden on changes to the table.

Two possible solutions come in mind: do not set font, alignment, pattern in the
default table style (blocked by the missing XML serialization yet bug 49437) or
link font to what is set under paragraph styles (error-prone as users can
delete Table Content there or have different styles). And finally if the user
applied direct formatting it must not reverted on any modifications to the
table (likely a result of bug 115573). Jim, you committed a patch...

@QA: Cannot follow the various not-closed-but-solved tickets.
