            Bug ID: 117778
           Summary: UI: Spreadsheet cell comment window doesn't enlarge to
                    hold added text
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.0.2 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: rob51 at mac.com

Description:
When typing in a cell comment, if the added text goes to a new line the comment
window doesn't expand to hold it. The new line of text appears underneath the
box. 

Cell comments in general seem rather buggy and could use a re-think. Why can't
you resize and reposition the comment window by just dragging the corners? Why
do you have to enter a special mode? 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Add a comment to a spreadsheet cell
2.Type more text than the default box will hold
3.

Actual Results:  
When the text overflows the box and wraps to a new line, the line appears
outside the box (underneath it). 

Expected Results:
The box enlarges to hold the text. 

(General comment: it seems the comment UI could use a rethink. Why can't you
resize the box by just dragging the corners like a normal window? Why can't you
easily reposition the window? Why must you enter a special mode?) 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes
