STEPS TO REPRODUCE: create a new table autoformat with alternating table rows. create two new tables, one with an odd number of rows, one with an even number. apply the autoformat. RESULT: in one new table the two bottom rows will have the same background color. PROBLEM: the table format simply assumes that there is a bottom "sum" row with its own format. this is not always the case. PROPOSED RESOLUTION: please allow to select whether the "sum" row table format should be applied to the last row.

I went to Table - Autoformat, then Add, but I don't know how to achieve alternating rows.

oops. sorry for that, should be fixed now.
Ok, thanks. I confirm the behavior. I found this report, which is apparently complaining about the same thing: bug 83667 I confirm that by inserting new rows, the "two colored lower rows" phenomenon repeats with an even number of rows. I will close this as a dupe and add a comment to the older report that this behavior also occurs also on applying. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 83667 ***
