Custom Border style

[redart]

Trying to create a custom border style that applies a bottom border but leaves everything else about the cell (including any other existing borders) unchanged.

Created a new style “Border”, set the bottom border to single black, and then double clicked the other 3 sides to make them grey (assuming that this is same as in Excel = ignore).

When I apply my new “Border” style it adds the bottom border but removes any other existing borders. Going back into edit style, the 3 sides I set to grey have not been saved as grey, they’re now blank, so that’s what’s being applied.

Bug?, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

In Excel, when you describe a cell style, you specify which formatting elements this style includes.

In Calc, when we apply a style to a cell, all of its formatting elements are applied. Today there is no way to describe in style and apply individual formatting elements.
This feature would be especially useful for conditional formatting.

Thanks for the clarification
