Description ahfa 2022-01-14 04:26:21 UTC
Description:
it is impossible to have two columns of the same width. it is m nearly impossible to copy one column on the left side and paste the in the second column and have them match It is very annoying to have to click on view then schroll clear to the bottom and click on view 50% then have to do the same thing when one wants a larger view For computer experts you failed, go back to school. Why can't there be a page set up Setting the margins manually takes to long and nearly impossible Ms Works worked fine I despise this program. after three and a half hours I finally got two even columns width. Seems as though every time i use this program something works different. Take A Blank page format it for tw0 columns Enter A ten linen paragraph and that paragraph is broken into two columns. I think The developers are idiots.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.uncheck auto width
2.enter exact column width for each col.
3.check auto width

Actual Results:
Worked once I thought. Evenly distribute contents box checked our unchecked no difference.impossible to enter the exact width in both columns. as soon as I enter column width in col 1 then choose col 2 the #1 col changes as soon as i attempt to enter col 2 width

Expected Results:
see above


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
F12 got turned on does not matter what i do when i press enter a new numbered paragraph appears yeah i have to press f12 but why how do i this program works differently every time i use it

I give up it is now 830pm pst i started @ 530pm pst

It seems to me not a bug report, but a question to https://ask.libreoffice.org/

I think that you need to:
- choose menu Formats - Columns, and check AutoWidth
- insert a column break at the bottom of the left column, then paste

Maybe it is esay to work with a table with two columns.
