I have the same problem too (modify style / format character). But I remarked the following behaviour: The error does not occur when I use OpenOffice in Gnome, but it does when I use it in Enlightenment.
In addition when I change the style in Gnome and a do not leave the font-tab selected, I can also switch between tabs in Enlightenment after that. -- System Information Kernel 2.6.9. openoffice.org 1.1.3-4 gnome-core 63 enlightenment 0.16.6-3 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
