            Bug ID: 144941
           Summary: validity - dropdown window too large not showing
                    shorter text
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: abc685 at hotmail.com

Description:
create a drop-down list data > validity > cell range (cell range from a
different sheet, same file)

then the dropdown list window opens as per length of the longest cell (of the
selected range) and showing the window size at the right of the window (not
starting from let) making it impossible to show shorter text in the dropdown
list, dropdown window alignment should start from left (or configurable),
dropdown window's width limit should be configurable (or given by the
calc-window size) so that also shorter text be always visible

calc 7.2.1.2
linux 4.15
ubuntu


Steps to Reproduce:
1.create validity list with criteria : cell-range
2.cell-range has different text lengths (short, and very long)
3.open dropdown list to choose value

Actual Results:
the dropdown window showing values to be chosen from, is too large and showint
its limit at the right, showing only the end (at the right) of the longest text
(of a selected cell-range)

Expected Results:
dropdown vindow (showing allowed values) should align (start) from left so that
shorter text is always visible (or be configurable in the validity dialog)


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
