In fact, no. It only works "as expected" when the cell is *focused* (i.e., when you click on it, and it receives the bold border showing focus, but not filling showing selection). But *selecting* this single cell (e.g., starting selection from this cell, extending to a neighbor, and then moving the mouse back to B1 to only have a single cell selected) shows the same behavior (Bold not applied to the contents of the cell). And the reason for the difference is that applying a property to *cells selection* only applies it to cell level; while applying it to a focused cell in the absence of selection *additionally* goes inside the cell, and for each span inside the cell, also resets the direct formatting related to this property. This is similar to Writer's relations between Paragraph-level and Character-level direct formatting, with character-level one taking precedence. Not a bug IMO.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
