Description: Adding a column to a table squeezes existing columns. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have the cursor in a table. 2. Choose 'Table > insert > Columns after' 3. The column is added at the right of the table. Actual Results: The table width is conserved, so the width of all the existing columns shrinks, and their content is squeezed. Expected Results: The table width should increase by the width of the new column, leaving the existent columns intact. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: This behavior is independent of the option chosen in Options > Libre Office Writer > Table > Behavior of rows/columns. (As a result, it is unclear what these options are good for.) If I remember correctly, this bug is not new in LO 6.2.4.2. This bug is related to my earlier bug report 113604: Optimize column width should be persistent.

Adding a column to a table squeezes existing columns. And this is enhancement request that adding a column to a table should enlarge table width for o new column. If page width is reached, only then columns should be squeezed. This is more UX but looks reasonable, so I'll confirm.
