Like many my documents accumulate excess styles when pasting text from
other people's documents. Yesterday I used the style organiser to clean
up unused styles (one's which had obvioously been imported). Afterwards
my "CellBody" style, used for table cells, has suffered anomalous
behavious.
1. it has acquired a left indent of 2.75 cm (used in several other
styles but not that one).
2. it has acquired Centre alignment (whereas it was previously left
aligned).
3. although I can change individual cells back by directly modifying
thier formatting, I cannot make such changes stick by modifying the
style.
4. worse -- if I turn on automatic update to the style the behaviour is
very strange. If I click the left align box it will not apply but
instead the left indent box changes to 2.75 cm. And all the tables in
the document become changed in this way.
I have tried this on 2 separate machines, PowerPC and Intel based. Same
behaviour.
Is there some underlying table format to drive this? I have tried
looking in the TableNormal style and TableGrid style but neither have
the centre alignment or 2.75 cm left indent.
