--- Comment #6 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel at t-online.de> ---
It seems the error with hatch distance in Writer is from the beginning. I see
it already in swx-format used be OOo1.1.5.

If you define the hatch in Writer with 7mm in the UI, you get 0.397cm in file
format. It seems to be a unit conversion problem with Twips in Writer. 7mm =
397 Twips.

Writers use of hatch distance is clearly wrong. But how can we handle this? The
error exists so long that there might be a lot of files out there having the
wrong value.

Make a cut for ODF 1.4? So that documents from ODF 1.3 and earlier are
converted to the correct value on import, and saving an ODF 1.4 document to an
earlier version converts the values on export?
