Bug#284096: problem depends on Window manager?

[Dominik Regli <regli_dominik@gmx.ch>]

I have the same problem too (modify style / format character).

But I remarked the following behaviour: The error does not occur when I
use OpenOffice in Gnome, but it does when I use it in Enlightenment.

In addition when I change the style in Gnome and a do not leave the
font-tab selected, I can also switch between tabs in Enlightenment after
that.
