Error description
During Export to Word, horizontal line seperators and blank table cells inherit style from previous attribute exported For horizontal line seperators: - Create a module with 4 objects. - For object 1 and 3, have only Object Heading - For object 2 and 4, have only Object Text - While exporting module to Word, choose 'Use horizontal line separators in book layout exports'. In the resulting document, we can observe that the horizontal line seperators after object 1 and 3 are in the style of Heading 1, and after 2, 4 the style of horizontal line seperators is Normal. In earlier versions, all horizontal line seperators are always of style Normal. For empty table cells: - Create a module with 4 objects. - For object 1 and 3, have only Object Heading - For object 2 and 4, have only Object Text - Insert a table (with 2 rows and 2 columns) after object 3. Fill the cells in first row with some text. - Insert a table (with 2 rows and 2 columns) after object 4. Fill the cells in first row with some text. - Export the module to Word. In the resulting document, we can observe that in the table after object 3, style for the second row is 'Heading' style. In the table after object 4, style for the second row is is Normal. Issue reproducible from 9.2.0.4 and above. In 9.2.0.2 and earlier, the issue is not seen. For ALL table cells, the style is Normal by default.
