Description Freek de Kruijf 2017-10-02 10:41:54 UTC
Description:
Starting Writer, selecting File->New->Labels one gets a dialog to set ones own type of label page. On the tab Format there are entries for setting Page width and Page height. However entering values in these fields is not accepted. The size remains 56.00 cm. Also the up/down arrows only allow small changes, but the size remains in the vicinity of 56 cm.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See above
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Fields are not changed to the required sizes

Expected Results:
Set the required sizes of the page.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
I discussed this on the Dutch email list and others have the same problem.

I can change Page width and Page height to value as I need.

This values depend from all another parameters (pitches, margins, size of labels, number of columns and rows) also. If you set up many rows and columns with big size of labels, then you cannot set up Page size less than sum of size of labels.
