            Bug ID: 137377
           Summary: -25,799.00 cm
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dav1dblunk3tt at hotmail.com

Description:
I imported a picture into my document.
I positioned it nicely.
I saved the document as docx
Later I reloaded it and it wasn't in the correct place or the correct style -
bollocks but this particular nuisance occurs all the time with LO and MS
formats.

However... this time there's more.  When I click on the picture and look at
it's properties it has become -25,799.00 cm wide (also 119cm tall but that's
wrong if the aspect ratio is supposed to be correct).  For reference it was
10cm wide before saving.

Now this magic number appears to herald some additional buggy behaviour - I can
no longer change the size of the figure, what ever I do the properties says it
is -25,799.00 cm wide (sometimes the height changes to 0 cm but the image
doesn't change).

I can only think this is some kind of overflow or maths error.  I'm used to LO
and docx not playing nicely with figures but this problem takes the piss.

FWIW yesterday I was using an older version of LO and while I had the usual
wonky reloading of figures this problem did not occur.  Today I'm using:
Version: 6.4.6.2
Build ID: 1:6.4.6-0ubuntu0.20.04.1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: kf5; 
Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded


I'm afraid I don't know the version I was using yesterday (system upgrade) but
it was not significantly old.




Steps to Reproduce:
I don't know if I can reproduce this reliably - it seems to occur at random
when saving files to docx format and reloading.  If they contain figures it's
always a gamble if they will load up in the correct place.

Actual Results:
Insert figure, save file, reload file and if you're lucky it's in the same
place, if you're not luck it isn't and if you're really unlucky the size is
-25,799.00 cm

Expected Results:
Figures are in the correct place and the correct size with the correct wrapping
and anchor options


Reproducible: Always
