> 
> - Now select cell A2 and and press F2 (in order to enter edit mode)
> 
> - Note: After now the letter A is centered perfectly in relation to the Ü.
> 
> - Press ESC in order to leave the edit mode.
> 
> - Note: A and Ü are no longer "centered"
> 
> - If you try the same with cell A4 (instead of A2) you will see that also in
> edit mode the letters are not centered.

> Conclusion:
> Kerning "off" is only applied in cell edit mode.

Please open a new issue. Casually repurposing a closed issue for a completely
different bug is not terribly a good idea.
