--- Comment #6 from robert at familiegrosskopf.de ---
Seems the GUI interprets "-" as a hyphen if it must produce a line-break. If
you will change the width of the column the other text will appear. Also
changing the height of the column will work.

I couldn't see it ever worked in another way. LO 4.0.5.2 and also LO 3.6.7.2
will show the same behavior. (Tested with OpenSUSE 42.1 64bit rpm Linux)

Showing all the content of a MEMO-field in the table-GUI shouldn't be allowed
with automatic row-height, because the content of such a field could be very
large. Only MEMO allows to save line-breaks and paragraphs. So the automatic
row-height will only show the height of one row.

A possible enhancement will be to show there is more content with a (red)
triangle like it is shown in fields of the report-builder.

Other enhancement will be: Don't let "-" be interpreted as a hyphen. But how
should set hyphens instead?

I will set this one to ENHANCEMENT and the version to LO 3.6.7.2 Couldn't test
here, but seems it is been inherited from OOo.
