Description Nicolas Mailhot 2012-03-02 01:42:46 UTC
Excel 2007 is not showing the end of the comment blocks in this libreoffice-generated xls, even though the block is supposed to be fit the contained text

Thanks for bugreport
I opened attachment and saved under new name in xls format using 3.5.3.
Result:
Size of comment frame is the same in Calc and in Excel, but size of characters in Excel is remarkable bigger. And text not fits in frame.
Saving in ods format not solves problem with opening this comment in Excel

in 3.3.4 also reproducible, so changing version to 3.3.4 as most early reproducible
Comment 3 retired 2014-12-11 11:37:51 UTC
* open test file
* resave as testfileNEW.xls
* open with excel 2011 for OSX

all comments do show as expected.
