Hi Irene,

thanks again!

I thought intuitively that by selecting the text (which can have no
attributes) I could edit the attributes of the enclosing element. When
selecting some text (e. g. inside a table cell) and changing the
alignment this affects the enclosing element. I expected the same
behaviour for the attribute setting.

Kind regards
 Philipp
