--- Comment #15 from Khaled Hosny <khaledhosny at eglug.org> ---
I can confirm this.

In non-edit mode the setting to disable kerning is ignored. This because Calc
has a shortcut for text layout that does not use EditEngine when certain
conditions are met (for performance, I think), and when EditEngine is not used
the kerning setting seem to be ignored.

This can be confirmed by forcing the variable bUseEditEngine to true in
sc/source/ui/view/output2.cxx. I’m not familiar enough with Calc to know how to
check if kerning is disabled and either set bUseEditEngine to true or make sure
the alternate text layout path respects the setting.
