Description: In Writer, edit the table properties of an existing table, with Alignment not set to Automatic. When I check the "relative" in Width, the default value is 1% which doesn't make sense in most of the cases IMO. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Edit table properties of an existing table in Writer 2. Set Alignment to value other than Automatic 3. Check the "Relative" in the Width Actual Results: Default value set to 1% Expected Results: Maybe 50% should make more sense, but can be other values Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.2.2.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 02b2acce88a210515b4a5bb2e46cbfb63fe97d56 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.14; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: zh-TW (zh_TW.UTF-8); UI: zh-TW Calc: threaded
An UX issue IMO
Cannot confirm 1. Table > Insert (enters a 2x2 table in the document) 2. Table properties > Alignment = Left, relative = checked (results in 100%) Version: 7.2.3.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 20(Build:2) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: de-DE (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US 7.2.3-1 Calc: threaded

Created attachment 176568 [details] screenshot When clicking "Relative" it immediately became 1%
(In reply to Franklin Weng from comment #4) > When clicking "Relative" it immediately became 1% Can you share a document before switching to relative?

Just create a simple doc with an empty table would do. But I just tried it in safe mode it couldn't be reproduced, maybe caused by user profile? Some users had the same experiences. https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/writer/70732

Needinfo for several month now, test document missing.

Confirming the bug. 1. Insert a table 2. Check table properties (alignment = left, relative = on) => 100% 3. Change the unit in tools > options > writer > general to point 4. Check table properties => 10% Switching to absolut makes it 438,5pt for A4, switching back to relative turns into 1% and okay results in a zero size table.
