Description hakan.stegborn 2025-03-27 15:50:44 UTC 
I have created a table in a document in LibreOffice Writer. 

In this table I have rows with a different background colour. 

If I copy one of these rows to an empty row the background colour is not copied.

It would be create if the background color was copied too.

Confirm with
Version: 25.2.1.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: e538fb6403facdfd3db0250c3b3278236c675c2a
CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 6.11; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Just the text is copied, not the formatting.

I tried to use Clone Formatting after I selected a whole row, but I get a crash. So I could not find any way to copy the formatting.
