Could you please confirm whether my screenshot shows the bad formatting you reported? If not, please describe your problem in detail and/or provide a screenshot of your own.

Thank you.
Comment 4 E.Mi 2016-06-30 00:21:36 UTC
Yes, your screenshot shows the problem
Comment 5 Gert Van Waelvelde 2016-06-30 09:01:10 UTC
The dropdownlist boxes on this form are either too small or too wide.

Could someone check whether this form displays correctly in MS Word?
It is does, this is a LO bug. If it looks the same in Word, this is not a bug.

Thanks

I can't check unfortunately.
Also there is text that is cut in the first page by the fields that doesn't show on your sreenshot
Comment 7 Gert Van Waelvelde 2016-06-30 09:41:55 UTC
This document was originally a Word document.
We need to find out if this problem occurs in Word as well, to rule out bad formatting by the creator of this document.

I guess you downloaded this document from the Internet?
Could you provide the URL of the document, so someone can download it directly and check it in MS Word?

Also, could you please say which operating system (including version) you are using?

Thanks.

Yes I downloaded from the internet, I wanted to get Libreoffice better so i just opened google and searched for: site:.pt filetype:docx and checked the results on first and maybe second page.
I use Ubuntu 16.04

Summary/description of this bug:

1) Open this document
2) The droplist boxes on the right look fine in MS Word, but are too wide in Writer (see screenshot)

This bug occurs in LibreOffice versions 5.1.3.2 and later on GNU/Linux. 
Thank you for reporting this, ekari!

The example file in Word and Writer

This seems to look decent enough in current 7.5 master.

The long dropdowns are not reproducible since about 6.2 anyways.
