Attachments: Two verses in a row, aplied full justified aligment

Created attachment 95567 [details]
Two verses in a row, aplied full justified aligment

Mostly I have to work with RTL text, and sometimes we have poetry in footnotes, and 95% of RTL poetry is in full justified mode, with two verses in a row.

In that case, i need two different styles in a row, a different style for each verse. For this, i use tables, and i just can't..

I want Writer to be able to have tables in footnotes too.
Regards
Ata Rafi

Do you mean footers or footnotes?  I am asking because if I want to insert a table in the footnotes this works for me (Go to INSERT -> FOOTER -> DEFAULT STYLE and then go to TABLE -> INSERT -> TABLE).

Confirmed. Status set to NEW. Platform set to All/All. The related AskLO thread is:

http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/29878/cant-insert-tables-in-footnotes/?comment=31035#comment-31035

Quoting my answer in that thread:

> Until quite recently (v4.1.5-v4.2.0) LO could not open a Word document 
> containing a table in a footnote (bug 71749) and would crash if any attempt was 
> made to paste a table into a footnote (bug 71892). The ODF v1.2 specification 
> appears to support a table (<table:table> element) being placed in a footnote 
> (<text:note-body> element), which makes sense as this is required for 
> interoperability with OOXML, but it does not appear possible at present.
