------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Apr 13 10:18:00 +0000 2008 ------- System: Intel Dual Core 2.8 GHz 4 GB RAM nVidia GeForce 8600 GT with 256 MB onboard RAM Dual 160 GB SATA hard drives Dual DVD +- RW OS: – Debian-Testing – fully updated as of Sun 13 Apr 2008 Version of OpenOffice: Upgraded to OpenOffice.org-core 1:2.4.0-3+b1 this morning from OO 2.3 Problem: Format > Paragraph > Indents and Spacing are expressed as "%" and "line" respectively. I can't change them to any other unit. – typing in "0.3 cm" for example it is changed back to "0.81%". Using other units (inches, millimetres, ...) has no effect. And what is it a % of? – Tools > Options > OO Writer > General > Measurement Units has "cm" as the default unit. Changing this to another unit has no effect in the paragraph style. – Similarly the Spacing is in "lines" and won't change to any other unit, such as cm. This happens with every one of my old documents that I've tried and those of my wife. It also happens with new documents, such as this one. If I go to Format > Styles and Formatting > Default Paragraph > Modify, The Indents and Spacing tab is in "points" and I can't change that! Regards, Ted VANDERNOOT P.S. I prepared a sample document, but I couldn't find where/how to attach it to this bug report.
