Problem description: Some table properties lost when saving as a .DOC file Steps to reproduce: 1. Start a new Writer document 2. Insert a table 3. Name it "Header" 4. Set Alignment to Automatic. 5. Save file as a DOC file. Current behavior: When file is opened, the table name and alignment are set to default values. Expected behavior: Table name and alignment should be whatever I had set them to. Platform (if different from the browser): Windows-XP SP3. Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0
[Reproduced] with "LibreOffice 3.5.2 - Debian 6.0.4 i386 English UI"
I don't see this issue. Where are you setting alignment to automatic? Marking as NEEDINFO. Also please provide a test document so that our developers don't have to. Lastly, once you provide a bit more information and the attachment, please reopen as UNCONFIRMED and I'll try to confirm it.
Also, does this look like the same issue that you are reporting? https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48848

Created attachment 80035 [details] Zip containing two test files.
Attached is a zip file with two Writer files that show the bug. This is how I created the files: 1. In Writer, start a new document. 2. Click Table, Insert, Table. In the dialog, click Insert. 3. Open the Table Properties dialog. 4. Change the name to Header, and make sure that the Alignment is set to Automatic. Then click OK 5. Save As TableTest.odt 6. Save As TableTest.doc 7. Close and reopen Writer. 8. Open the files and check the table properties. 9. The table in the odt file is named Header, but the one in the doc file is named Table1. Also, the Alignments will not be the same.
I can confirm same behavior using LO 4.0.4.1 (Win7 32bit). DOC file not properly save Table properties, though it's invisible to the eyes because default alignment for automatic is left. Seems similar with Bug 48848, but need to investigate further with that bug.
I can confirm this behavior, tested using Mac OSX 10.9 with LibreOffice Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 9c45345a680f7444df251f9403c7d56572380f21 TinderBox: MacOSX-x86@49-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2013-11-18_12:43:03 Also reproducible using the .docx file format. Kind regards, Joren
Confirm this too on Ubuntu 13.10 AMD64.

Question here is: does DOC support custom title and automatic alignment table properties? In MSO 2010 title field is greyed out and I see no automatic alignment, just left, center, right. So I guess automatic is converted to left. So this may be NotOurBug for .DOC format.

This bug is open for a long time without explanation to Comment 16. From what I see, MSO doesn't support Automatic and DOC doesn't support Title. When Alt Text is added in MSO and saved as DOC, there's a warning that DOC doesn't support it. Not sure, but looks like NotOurBug. I'll close, but if someone has a better explanation, please write. DOCX is different. I guess Title from ODT should be saved as Alt Text. I'll open a separate bug for that in table, we have some for image and chart.
