Sorry, but I am not a developer, so I cannot really decipher the content of that page. Do you mean that the bug is fixed in 1.6.5? >>Even hitting Cmd+e before typing in the next cell >>doesn't change the formatting back to normal.

Sorry, it's the keyboard shortcut for italicizing/emphasis in Mac. I do as much as I can with the keyboard :) >>Oh, sorry--forgot to mention that this "sticky >>formatting" persists even when cutting and pasting >>or copying objects between cells. As in, select an >>italicized letter, cut it, paste it to another cell, >>and then try to type in a different cell--the text >>will be in italics.

Select a word and change the formatting to italics, using keyboard. 2. Copy the selected word, using keyboard. 3. Paste text. Typing either after pasting or before pasting is not in italics, as long as this is done outside of tables.
