Description: When needed to go out from a table you must type Alt+Enter. From 5.4 (I don't know the behaviour in previous versions) the first time you type produces a new paragraph into the table, the second time let's you exit from the table producing a new paragraph into the document. Steps to Reproduce: 1.create a table 2.insert at least 1 text row 3.Exit the table using Alt+Enter Actual Results: A new paragraph is created into the table Expected Results: The cursor exits the table and a new paragraph is produced outside the table, in the document Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.5.4.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 36ccfdc35048b057fd9854c757a8b67ec53977b6 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: it-IT (it_IT); UI: it-IT Calc: CL threaded
Hm, Alt+Enter works as I expected only if text cursor is in left top or in right bottom cell of the table. In first case I inserted the empty paragraph before table and in second - cursor moved to next paragraph after table. And this is correct behavior for me. If the text cursor in any another cell of the table then Alt+Enter does nothing. Could you please describe your problem more detail step-by-step?
Steps have been described: A text flow contains a table with 1 row with 2 columns and a row with single column I need to exit the table to continue to write into the text flow I put the cursor at the end of the last cell of the table and type Alt+Enter A new empty paragraph is generated I type again Allt+Enter A new paragraoh is generated outside the table. Note that this doesn't happen inside a single or multiple columns table, I mean, not a table with 1 row with 2 columns and a row with single column. I should send an attachment to better explain but I don't know wether thie is possible. Thank you.

Created attachment 188669 [details] Example page to check the issue

I am trying to replicate your issue, but I need to better understand the layout of your table. As I read it, your original table is 2 rows x 2 columns and in the second row the 2 columns are merged into one. When I create this and key Alt+Enter in the second row I am immediately taken out of the table into a normal paragraph without the need to key Alt+Enter again. Could you attach a screen capture of your table?

Your issue is not with the table, it is the use of bullets in the second row. It appears that the bulleted paragraph's use of the Alt+Enter keys is overriding the table's use of that key combination.
Thank you. If this is the problem there's no way to solve it and in case of bulleted paragraph I know I have type the shortcut twice. May I consider this solved?

Another work-around would be to type the second line in the second row without bullets, key Alt+Enter to leave the table then click that line and select bullets. In it's present form I think this report should be closed and a new enhancement request should be made for another key combination to be added, if possible, to serve the requirement you have identified.
An enhancement request should be made for another key combination to be added (different than Alt+Enter), if possible, to serve the requirement identified (exit from table)
My guess is that a conflict in shortcuts is reason enough to look for a fix. But it's true that opening a new ticket might be a good idea, with clear steps, a link to attachment 188669 [details], and a preferred solution. Conflict already existed in OOo 3.3.
Unfortunately, it's hard to create a macro for this, because alt-Enter is not configurable, and there is no associated dispatcher call for it, yet. Other workarounds: – pressing double Enters before alt-Enter to leave the list (and after that, removing the unnecessary empty paragraph in the cell – maybe it's a little bit easier, than remove the empty bullet list item). – pressing alt-Enter in the first cell of the next table or – pressing Enter and after that, Ctrl-0 in the beginning of the next Heading to insert an empty Heading and change it to Text Body paragraph style.
