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.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
