Description Mark Brown 2018-12-15 18:49:46 UTC
LibreOffice Writer 6.1.3.2 in Windows 64 won't let you change from default font for all elements, all at once, of a table.

OpenOffice, which LibreOffice is supposed to be based on,
easily allows changing all fonts for all cells in a table
with only one click for font, then one click for size of font. Simple.

For all the users of your extremely up-to-date program with all its
extremely nice list of formats, though, there's no easy choice
on the main Writer document composing page to make all the cells 
default to a font other than the non-user-selected default font.

It would be more useful to several users if on the main page you
could select font and size with only two front-page clicks.

This proposed solution would help several users in later versions.
It's already incorporated into OpenOffice 4.1.6 by default.

m.b.

Mark, I don't undersand, why this shouldn't be possible
1. Put cursor in a table cell => Strg+A (selects all cells)
2. Change font for all cells

So for me NOTABUG. What do you think, Marc?
