sorry about that, <return> seems to submit the bug with the new galeon
     (with much trepedation I will try <return> again. Oh, no. cut and
paste will work... 


The LaTex exporter does something weird with merged cells when the
cell which
is hidden has a border.
 
1) new gnumeric
2) B2 gets a
3) F2 gets a
4) put a thick border around each cell in B2 to F2
==> if you export to LaTeX, all is well
5) merge B2 to E2
==> if you export to LaTeX, all is well
6) F4 gets a
==> if you export to LaTeX, we are picking up the hidden merged border
so the border in latex is generating :t: and :b: (small openings in
the double line) which should not be there. The value being generated
should be =. Of course, these are all numeric place holders. We need
the c code not to look at borders when in the middle of a merged region.
 
cheers,
and sorry again about the blank email,

this patch against head should do the trick.  It may be possible to backport it
to 1.2.x too (that code has not changed much)

Andreas does that seem reasonable to you ?

This patch causes bug #142219 I have undone its commit.
