Description Yann Papouin 2013-02-03 16:38:45 UTC

Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Choose to split a cell in a table
2. The cell window shows up with a split count of two and a radio group with Horizontally selected by default

Current behavior:
Horizontally is selected by default

Expected behavior:
Vertically is selected by default

I don't known why it is always upset me, maybe because in MS Office we just have a two spin edit with the number of columns set to 2 by default (like Horizontally set by default)
              
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: 3.4.1 release

Reproduced in Windows 7 and Fedora 18. Not a bug. Difference of functionality between MS Word  and LO Writer as described below. 

User wants LO Writer to default to vertical rather than horizontal when splitting cell within a table.
