            Bug ID: 89961
           Summary: Spanned cells not handled when saving to CSV with
                    "Fixed Column Width" setting
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.3.3.2 release
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Simple spreadsheet with spanned columns

If a spreadsheet is saved in Text (CSV) format and the "Fixed Column Width"
option is selected, the contents of the columns as they are shown on the screen
are written to the file without delimiters, i.e. suitable for posting as plain
ASCII to a blog, etc.

However spanned columns are truncated at the first column in the set.  The
content is not allowed to flow into succeeding columns.

For example, if the spreadsheet contains this:

A1         B1         C1         D1         
Foo bar this spans    C2         D2         
A3         B3         Foo bar this spans

You get this when saving as fixed-column-width CSV:

A1         B1         C1         D1         
Foo bar thi           C2         D2         
A3         B3         Foo bar thi

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Load the attached test.ods
2. File->SaveAs...
3. Select Text CSV (.csv) from the format drop-down
4. Check the "Edit filter settings" checkbox
5. Click Save 
6. Check "Fixed Column Widt" in the Field options dialog, and finish

RESULTS: Spanned columns are truncated at the end of the first column in each
span group

EXPECTED RESULTS: Spanned data can flow over all the cells in the span group
