      Is this just in 1 document or every brand new document? I don't have this problem with LibreOffice Calc, there is no formatting selected at all.

      Do you have the paintbrush selected?

        I don't see a difference here.

        Also what is this button do, looks like you're using linux (and I'm on my work system atm).

          Must be an older version of LibreOffice. I believe @IRJ is using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

            @black3dynamite In any case, not installing Ubuntu Desktop 18.04 LTS to troubleshoot this. . . 😉

                A little older but not ancient..

                      @IRJ Yeah because LTS means they are only going to offer you security patches (if that).

                        Install the current version from the libreoffice website rather than the Ubuntu App Center.

                          Yep, but like I said this isn't an ancient version. This is not the type of change that they make in a security update.

                            I may try from this repository. I want to ensure I am able to updated automatically.

                            sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa

                              Which again, you didn't answer my question. You just showed an example of you using the Format Painter function instead of actually reading the question.

                              Centered looks like this

                                That isn't my issue. Expand the size of the columns to match my example.

                                  No difference.

                                      Centered centers on the cell, so what the hell are you asking?

                                          Are you sure you're using the correct verbiage to describe the issue? I don't think you are because what I've just listed in detail is centering.
