Description michael 2018-05-23 15:11:15 UTC
Description:
I have a .xls spreadsheet using a header.  Click on the header button and under the header tab in the center area I have the text formatted with custom header text >> font effects >> Outline and Shadow check boxes checked. Click OK then OK File then Save. Close out Libre and open the spreadsheet back up and its not saved.  I use this spreadsheet often and typically have to go through these motions at least 20-30 times a day if not more.  Would be excellent if it can be resolved.

The attached ODS may be checked in the header dialog or preview; then saved as XLS and reloaded to see that the operation resets the attributes.

But checking in Excel 2016, there's no option to make text in header have these properties - so likely it's not a bug, but simply XLS format (and probably XLSX too, since the dialog in Excel is not specific to XLS) doesn't support this.

Thus closing NOTABUG.
