Description Fred Strickland 2011-10-17 06:04:53 UTC
Problem description: 

Excel spreadsheet has format problems after being edited by LibreOffice Spreadsheet.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Take a Excel spreadsheet and do some editing with LibreOffice Spreadsheet program.
2. Then use Excel to view the information.
3. The Excel spreadsheet won't fill the whole window and the frozen first row behavior is lost.

Current behavior:

I can view and the spreadsheet insight Excel, but I cannot get the spreadsheet to fill the whole window like it did before.

Expected behavior:

It should not matter whether I use LibreOffice or Excel to edit the spreadsheet, the frozen row and the display size should be the same.

Platform (if different than the browser): 
I use Windows XP on my home computer.
              
Browser: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; InfoPath.2; Tablet PC 2.0)

Hi, please excuse the inconvenience, it seems you suffer from Bugzilla Upgrade.

Modified OS due to report.

@Fred Strickland:
If possible please Add an attachment with a zip containing source document and result after saved from LibO, if it's confidential you can send it to me by e-mail, but the best would be if you can create a very simple document only for this test.

If you want to accelerate the process, you can follow additional hints on <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport>.

Please:
- Try again with latest 3.3.4 version (3.3.0 is outdated) or if possible 3.4.3
- Attach a test kit (as mentioned above) with information how it has been created (Excel version, ...)
- Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the 
  problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots
  into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show
- Contribute a step by step instruction containing every key press and every 
  mouse click (not simply "do some editing") how to reproduce your problem 
- add information 
  -- concerning your PC
  -- concerning your OS (Version, Distribution, Language)
  -- concerning your LibO localization (UI language)
  -- Installed Extensions (no need to mention the ones delivered in
     the install pack)
  –- Libo settings that might be related to your problems 
    (video hardware acceleration ...)
  -- how you launch LibO and how you opened the sample document
  -- everything else crossing your mind after you read a.m. URL


May be you can test <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport_Details> for submitting bug reports further reports as long as Assistant is broken?

Thank you for your endurance!
