<pre>Description:
Merge Cell Problem version LibreOffice Calc Version: 6.0.6.2
The "Merge Cells" mechanism give unexpected results.
During merging cells to contain long strings I discovered several unexpected
results.
1. Select the cells in the row containing the string then
Format > Merge Cells > Merge Cells properly merges cells
But repeating Format > Merge Cells shows that the Merge and Center Cells
options is selected.
I expected the Merge Cells option to show selected.
If the selected Merge and Center Cells option is now clicked on, the cells are
split. This might be proper unchecking of the option to get back to the
pre-merged condition and may be equivalent to the Split Cells option.
2. Select the cells in the row containing the string then
Format > Merge Cells > Merge and Center Cells properly merges centers
cells
and repeating Format > Merge Cells shows that the Merge and Center Cells
options is properly selected. If the selected Merge and Center Cells option
again is clicked on, the cells are again split. This might be proper
unchecking of the option to get back to the pre-merged condition (equivalent to
the Split Cells option).
But Select the cells in the row containing the string then
Format > Merge Cells > Merge Cells now merges and center cells.
I expected the cells to be merged and not centered.
Summary
a. Clicking on either "Merge" or "Merge and Center" options
results in a checkmark appearing by the "Merge and Center" option.
b. Clicking anywhere in the Merge option menu after either
selecting "Merge" or "Merge and Center" appears to be equivalent to clicking on
the "Split Cells" option.
b. Once "Merge and Center" is inflicted on cells, attempting to
change to "Merge" by "Split" and "Merge" result in "Merge and Center"
Steps to Reproduce:
1.select cell
2.select Format
3.select Merge
4.select Merge
Actual Results:
cells are merged, but "Merge and Centered" is checked
Expected Results:
Either "Merge" is shown selected or only "Split Cells" is allowed. Other
