Hi Colin,
Thanks for the response. I suspect that this issue needs to be decided by
someone above my pay grade. I would, however, like to add a couple of problems
with your suggestion. 
(1) Changing the behaviour of Calc to flow upward would have legacy issues for
existing spreadsheets. Unfortunately, some people may be relying on the
existing behaviour.
(2) I decided to do something similar to rotating text - I increased the font
size on standard non rotated text. Again the column height increased
automatically and when I reduced the column height the top of the text did NOT
display in the empty cells above. I suspect that the horizontal truncation of
text if there is insufficient head room is a long standing legacy behaviour.
The way forward with this problem requires someone with more product history
than me.
Regards…. Peter.
