Step to reproduce 1. Insert a table in a Writer document with 1 column and 2 rows 2. Try to set column size by right clicking in the whole selected table > select Size > Column Width 3 .In my case, default width is 17,00 cm, set to 12,00 cm Nothing happened Expected result: The column width shrink to be 12,00 cm Version: 6.5.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 21f13b2829dc9ffc19bfad56fe764029c845a0b4 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.0; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@86-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2019-12-25_21:30:00 Locale: id-ID (id_ID.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
I confirm it with Version: 6.5.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: e26d89371f0e4f41476c9a99be01d98dedb76776 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: default; VCL: win; Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Language: en-GB Calc: threaded and also with Version: 6.3.4.2 (x64) Build-ID: 60da17e045e08f1793c57c00ba83cdfce946d0aa CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Windows 10.0; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: win; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Sprache: de-DE Calc: threaded Perhaps it is intended that you can't change column size, if this would change width of the table. But in this case I would expect a warning / information. cc: Design-Team
What you do with column size is to distribute the total width, 17cm in my case. To make the whole table smaller use Table > Width in the same dialog. => WFM
There are multiple possible solutions to this bug report: 1. shrink table if single column (as bug report that I support) 2. give a warning (alternative to 1.) 3. explain in Documentation (in any case), where this is not explained at https://help.libreoffice.org/6.5/en-US/text/swriter/01/05120100.html
It depends on how you change the table width, it works with table properties > Table: Alignment=left, Width=10cm (changes spacing right to 7cm). It does not work with table properties > Columns: [x] Adapt table width, Remaining space=7cm (after setting alignment=left). However, with two columns the second procedure meets the expectation and sets table width automatically. This is at least inconsistent and we should adjust the table width on single columns too.
Dear Rizal Muttaqin, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-UntouchedBug
Still present in Version: 7.6.0.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 776eaf34564cbf3f034a0ba1fd1d5c32ff9ccf1c CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB Calc: CL threaded Additional information In "Column Width" dialog you can't change column width with arrows, if table has only one column. So part of the solution would also be, that you can't change width with typing.
Reproduced in: Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 1ec2e39cf4d5fe0a592bc783fd8bcdc4345c8cbd CPU threads: 6; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 22621; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded Also reproduced in 3.3 with following steps: 1. Insert a table in a Writer document with 1 column and 2 rows 2. Right click on table 3. Click "Table" within context menu 4. In Columns tab, update Column Width to a value smaller than default (e.g. changing 6.93" to 5.4") 5. Click OK Result: column width is not updated
