Table Cells Contain Default Font at Far Right

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040922 Description of problem: I have a table I am working on and I noticed that sometimes when I inserted a new row, that new row would default to the default page font?? instead of inherriting the font from the row above. I looked into it a little more and noticed that at the far right of each cell, the default font is set. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openoffice.org-1.1.2-10.fc2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a 5 column table 2. Enter text in each cell of a row using a different font than the page default 3. Using your right-arrow key, move the cursor to the end of the text in one of the cells. The very last position shows up as the page default font. 4. No try to insert a new row 5. Every once in a while, the new row will have the default font set in the cells instead of the font you chose. Additional info:
Once you are at the end of a paragraph (and a cell in a table is no exception), pressing the right arrow again is a built-in shortcut for "reset to underlying style." i.e. see http://blogs.linux.ie/caolan/2004/08/05/writer-end-of-paragr/. Does this explain the behaviour you see ?
The problem is not with the shortcut for "reset", the problem is that when I insert a new row, the new row is created with the "reset" font instead of the font of the current cell I am in when doing the insert.
Can you create an example .sxw document with an example of a table which will cause the problem and put your cursor into the place where you will insert a new row and save the document and attach it here. Writer saves the location of the cursor in the file, so if I open the document here and do a insert->row without moving the cursor I'll see exactly what you do.
Created attachment 106286 [details] OO Bug example for insert row bug Ok, I went to insert a row while I was in the middle of a cell, and the row below was created with a different font. I attached the file.
