Description Erik Trolle 2025-06-16 18:13:11 UTC
Description:
Sheet in .odf format has varying number of text cells in each line. Each text cell has 4-edge box around. When saving sheet in .xlsx format, certain cells loose the bottom edge.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Open the attached sheet HindenburgAner_6.ods
2) Go to cell H39 Sophie ... at cell address F:9
3) Verify text is boxed in with all 4 edges present
4) Save the sheet in Excel 2007-365 format suffix .xlsx
5) Open sheet HindenburgAner_6.xlsx
6) Inspect cell H39 again, the lower edge of the box is now missing.
   This is considered an error.


Actual Results:
Certain cells have only 3 edges

Expected Results:
All cells should have 4 edges


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Opening the ODS,
cloning the format from G34 to G35,
Saving as XLSX,
Reopening,

format in G35 is fine.

Thank you for reporting the bug. I can confirm that the bug is present in 25.2.4.3 (X86_64) testing under Win 7.  I was able to replicate with both of the test files.

Note that when the file is initially saved and displayed in Calc the borders remain as expected but on closing and reopening, the .XLSX file certain borders will be missing.
