Created attachment 127020 [details] Preview of color overflow in OLE Hello, I would like to submit a feature request: adding the possibility to have cell styles for text tables in Writer - with background color support - like there exists in Calc; along with "Paragraph styles", "Character styles", etc. I often need to format some cells in my reports, and it has to be consistent throughout it. Currently, for this, I need to select the cells individually (or by group if they are adjacent) and then setting formatting parameters. The main problem I have is with cells background color: if I don't select the whole cell, that's only the paragraph background which is modified. I also have to remember which color I assigned to which value to keep consistent in my whole document. For these tasks, having cell styles would be much more productive. I know that there's the possibility of including a Calc table, in which I can use cell styles, but the result is not satisfying, as background colors often overflows in adjacent cells (see attachment).
