No, this has been changed with the first version of LO 5.3. Could be there are updates of FB3 from LO 5.4 up to now. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

It's funny. I tested this with the second attachement. The database had been created with LO 5.4. You couldn't add more than '12345' to a 5-characters-field. A message appears, that there couldn't be added more than 5 characters. Try it. After reading comment 16 I tested it with a database I created new. And soon the described behaviour appears. It isn't the same bug which appears first, but the behaviour of the database created with LO 5.4 is better than the behaviour of the database created now. Has the internal database been changed since LO 5.4.0.0.beta1? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105711 --- Comment #14 from QA Administrators --- Dear robert, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

--- Comment #13 from rob...@familiegrosskopf.de ---
Have tested it again with LO 6.1.3.2, 64bit rpm Linux. I could put 20
characters in a field if I use the first 128 characters of ASCII
('12345678901234567890'). With special German characters it is set to 10
characters. Have tested this with two databases: a migrated database and an
external database, linked to a Firebird file.
Have downloaded the second example. There must be something different. I could
add only 5 characters. If I add more than 5 charcters the message "Value too
long" appears. With this example it works right, with databases created in LO
6.1.3.2 it works wrong: more than 5 characters, no message when writing down
more than 20 characters - only the length will be cut.
