Description Cor Nouws 2017-10-18 20:00:58 UTC
UI Spinn button field for Column spacing (in Sections / Page styles) changes with 0,01 cm

This is quite useless, and in contradiction with other places, such as page margins, where it changes with 0,1 cm.

Mind: this is the unit of the change with Up/Down too.

As an idea how to proceed, we had a similar issue for the column gutter (bug 67670) that was fixed with this patch https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/43964/5/sw/source/ui/frmdlg/column.cxx.
