SBA->Amy2008: You are right. I did not see the tiny difference of .8 and .9 at
first.
This applies to both Calc cells and Draw text boxes.
I regard issue 103231 as a duplicate of this one.
"Expanded, 928.8pt" works, but 928.9pt (and more) brings "surprises" :-)
It looks like the dialog internal logic is broken or there is a problem when
writing/reading the set values.
Further tests show this:
When I set "Expanded, 1000pt" and press "Tab" (to change focus in dialog), then
the spin box goes back to the maximum value for "expanded" (999.9pt). Looks
good.
- Click OK.
- Reopen dialog (Menu - Format - Character)
-> See that the value changed to "Condensed 857,8pt"
This value makes no sense, no wonder the text and selection display is unusable
in this state.
The "legal" limitation for condensed is 1.7pt:
Set "Condensed" in dialog, set 1000pt, press <Tab>
-> The value goes to 1.7pt, the preview shows that this is a meaningful limit
for squeezing characters together.
I adjusted the summary. The selection problem is just the symptom. The root
cause is the "overflow" at 928.9pt.
Note that in Writer text body, this does not happen. There "expanded, 999.9pt"
stays when the Format-Character dialog is reopened.
