Priority: medium
Bug ID: 58713
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: FORMATTING: Resizing A Cell Affects Other Cells
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: laptopdu...@gmail.com
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 3.6.4.3 release
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description: I have been fitting rows and columns to the boxes in a
background image (specifically a DnD character sheet) and then merging cells so
the box on the background image is more or less editable. Sometimes, when I
resize a column (or row), one or more columns (or rows) to the left (or above)
that one also change. After many columns (or rows) have been resized, this very
noticeably throws off the alignment of merged cells with their corresponding
boxes on the background picture. This also sometimes occurs when changing zoom
levels, switching between sheets, closing and reopening the document, or just
editing the contents of cells.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Paste something with a grid/table/boxes into Calc and set it as a background
image. Preferably in which the boxes are smaller than the default column size
in Calc.
2. Resize columns and rows to match the borders of the items in the background
image.
3. Eventually, you will notice that resizing one cell seems to cause a shift as
all cells to the left (or above) it become smaller. This will be obvious as the
cells no longer line up precisely with the background image.
Current behavior: Resizing a row or column causes rows/columns other than the
one currently being edited to change. I am not sure, but I think this might be
due to the inexactness of resizing by dragging the dividing bar between
columns/rows. For example, I can drag a column divider form 60 points to 50.5
points, and yet the column is not visually resized, even though the tooltip for
the column now shows the new size. Perhaps resizing columns eventually forces a
refresh of other columns and all of those little differences add up.
Expected behavior: Resizing a column/row should not cause other columns/rows to
shift or change size or refresh or whatever. The graphic display of the
spreadsheet should always match the true column and row sizes so that
subsequent columns and rows are not moved over more than they should be.
Operating System: Windows 7
