            Bug ID: 128290
           Summary: Table in exported DOCX file automatically resizes
                    columns
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: matthew.bugzilla at epoq.co.uk

Description:
When an exported DOCX file is opened in Word, the columns are automatically
resized to fit the contents. This behaviour is switchable in Word, so should be
switched off in the exported file unless the equivalent behaviour has been
switched on in Writer.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert a table with two columns of equal width;
2. Type one short word in the first column, and one very long word in the
second column, so that it wraps to the next line;
3. Save the document to DOCX;
4. Open the DOCX file in Word;

Actual Results:
The second column is wider than the first, so the long word does not wrap to
the next line.

Expected Results:
Both columns should be the same width, as they were in Writer.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Unticking "Automatically resize to fit contents" on the "Table Options" dialog
in Word makes the columns the same width again.
