OK, I'll take a closer look at this over the next couple days.

Weird... If you save the file in editpadpro, and then open it in 
editpad lite, do you still have the problem?

It did for a while, but the OpenOffice folks have insisted on using an 
old version of Python which EClass is now not compatible with. I plan 
on adding this support back in very soon, so I haven't totally removed 
the options, but unfortunately it is true that they don't work right 
now. I'll see if I can get something working before the final version 
of 2.5.4 is released.

Thanks,
