Image describing the steps

1) Create a 2x2 table and write a sentence in the first cell.
2) Select the text and change the font.
3) Select the first row.
4) Select the text and copy it.
5) Put the cursor in the first cell of the second row.
6) Paste the clipboard content using the toolbar button.
7) The format of the pasted text is not correct.

When you copy and paste in tables, there are more similar bugs. But they are difficult to reproduce, because they only appear when you use Impress after a while.

I'm using impress LibreOffice version 5.1.1.2

You can use "right click >> characters" to change the font.

I observed that:
- It's important to select the whole row when copy.
- It's important to set the cursor in the first cell of the second row before paste.
- It's important to paste using the paste button of the tool bar, selecting the option "Formated text RTF".

This third observation wasn't in the previous instructions. I'm sorry. The attached image is very descriptive.

Confirmed.
Also happens when using CTRL+SHIFT+V and choosing RTF

If you copy the raw it does not copy the format. if you copy from one cell then it will copy the format.
