Created attachment 84641 [details]
Simple file including a table

File created using version 4.1.1 of Open Office and includes a table

When the table toolbar is floating and the value of the area style/filling field changes, the text displayed overlays on top of the previous text.

System
Mac OSx 10.8.5
Open Office version 4.1.1


Steps
1. Open the attached file
2. Have the table toolbar floating
3. Select the title row of the table
4. Look at the area filling/style field
5. Click on the next row of the table
6. Look at the area filling/style field
The text in the are style/filling field gets overlaid over the previous text.  When you move the cursor over this field the field gets redrawn.

This can also be exhibited by changing the table design option. 

Note:
If the table toolbar is docked, this behaviour does not occur.
Nor does this occur on a Window 8.1 with the same version of Open office
