<pre>Description:
When the attached document is opened, and the size is changed to A0 (118.8 x
84.0 cm), which is not allowed by MS word, and for that matter will never be
used in real life, the results are OK. If I subsequently change the margins,
from the default 2.00 cm to 1.50 cm, and click "Apply" after each change, the
second change (i.e. of the right margin) will put all text of the document in a
single one-character wide column, oops...
Further information:
Version: 6.2.3.2 (x64)
Build ID: aecc05fe267cc68dde00352a451aa867b3b546ac
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 6.1; UI render: default; VCL: win;
Locale: en-GB (en_GB); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached lift-01.odt
2. Select all
3. Format menu, Page
4. Change size to 118.8 x 84.0 (essentially, A0), click "Apply", results OK
5. Change "Left" to 1.50 cm, click "Apply" - results OK
6. Chanhe "Right" to 1.50 cm, click "Apply" - Oops...
Actual Results:
After step 6. above formatting changes to single one-character column for the
entire document.
Expected Results:
I would expect the right margin to be changed to 1.5 cm, without any further
changes to the formatting!
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Admittedly, this is an extreme example, as I doubt that Writer will ever be
used to produce A0-sized documents, it was done to verify that the program
doesn't have the MS Word (XP 2002, "freebie with PC") limitation of widths not
exceeding 22(!) inch, but of course this behaviour is completely wrong.</pre>
