------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu May 11 13:20:49 -0700 2006 ------- I noticed when creating a frame style that the Column Spacing option (when multiple columns are selected) accepts only units of %. This is in contrast to the Format->Frame dialog that defaults to inches, but allows other units as well (although _not_ %). I'd love to be able to create a frame style with column separation of 0.25 inches, but that doesn't seem possible. There may be a good explanation for that difference in units between frame styles and Format->Frame on existing frames, but in that case, the behavior of column spacing using Frame styles is still very strange. As an example, I created a frame style with frame width 5 inches and column separation 25%. When applying the frame style to a frame, I end up with a column separation of 0.17 inches. I can't figure out for the life of me what 0.17 inches is 25% of. Either this is just wrong behavior, or the OpenOffice documentation should be updated to explain this behavior. Thanks for making a great product and for taking a look at this issue.
