1. How to change new Comment Box Default Font & Font Size. ie. Font too small. 2. How to change and save Comment Box location on sheet. ie. Box does not stay in new location after being moved.
No idea what th problem might be, quick test with parallel installation of Master "LOdev 3.7.0.0.alpha0+ - ENGLISH UI / German Locale [Build ID: c7e559]" {tinderbox: @16, pull time 2012-10-03 05:46:26} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) did not show anything abnormal in Calc comments. @reporter: Thank you for your report – unfortunately important information is missing. May be hints on <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport> will help you to find out what information will be useful to reproduce your problem? If you believe that that is really sophisticated please as for Help on a user mailing list Please: - Write a meaningful Summary describing exactly what the problem is - Attach a sample document (not only screenshot) or refer to an existing sample document in an other Bug with a link; to attach a file to this bug report, just click on "Add an attachment" right on this page. - Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show - Contribute a document related step by step instruction containing every key press and every mouse click how to reproduce your problem (similar to example in Bug 43431) – if possible contribute an instruction how to create a sample document from the scratch - add information -- what EXACTLY is unexpected (not "Too Small", but "font size seems to be only 2pt"!) -- and WHY do you believe it's unexpected (cite Help or Documentation!) -- concerning your PC (video card, ...) -- concerning your OS (Version, Distribution, Language) -- concerning your LibO localization (UI language, Locale setting) –- Libo settings that might be related to your problems (video hardware acceleration ...) -- how you launch LibO and how you opened the sample document –- Whether your problem persists when you renamed your user profile before you launch LibO (please see <https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#User_profile_location>) -- everything else crossing your mind after you read linked texts
Hello, I didn't know that you needed that much information, so I'll try to be more clear. The trouble that I am having is: 1. When I add a new Comment Box to any cell in Calc, the new Comment box is already pre-formatted for a Default font that is so small that I can barely grab it with the mouse to change it to a larger font that I can see. And if it matters, the sheet size is reduced to 60%, so I can fit more cells on the screen. Once I can highlight the font in the Comment Box, then I have no problem to change it, but I have to do this action with every new Comment Box. I want to be able to change the Default Fault within the Comment Box to something that I like and I don't know how to do this so that the Font in the next New Comment Box will not need to be changed. 2. When I add a New Comment Box and type in the Comments, I highlight the outside edges of the Comment box and move the Box to a different location on the spreadsheet, the Comment Box does not stay in the New Location that I had just moved it to. When the Comment Box is released from the mouse and I select a different Cell on the sheet, the Box that I had just moved has now reverted to it's original location. I want to be able to move a Comment Box and have it stay in the new location that I choose. Also, it might be important that when I finish editing the Comment Boxes, I usually hide the Comment and use the mouse-over to reveal the contents. I hope that this is better information for you, but if you still need more, then please let me know and I will try to provide. Thanx in advance for your help.

Questions were answered, so status back to UNCONFIRMED for now. (This is better to catch the eyes of our bug wranglers ;-)
Created attachment 68757 [details] attachment-23045-0.html Hello, My issue still exists and I have attached a Sample Sheet that shows my problem.

<http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport#General_information> item 4 So I will reduce subject of this bug here to the font size problem. @Roman: Please do not do such changes without any further action the bug. Here are some uncommented attachments, nobody knows for what they might be, and some 30 text lines reporter tells some stories about his life and some trouble he has with LibO without any new information; no idea whether there might be a bug or only user errors. No answer at all! @David: Currently the font size and font in Calc comments seems to be the one defined in Paragraph style "Default". Can we summarize your problem with: "Need separate paragraph style for Comments"? There are workarounds how to change all comments with few clicks like <http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36465> and <http://openoffice.2283327.n4.nabble.com/api-dev-Changing-font-and-font-size-of-comments-in-Calc-td3165489.html>. I did not check them, but I think such a workaround is not optimum

Comment on attachment 68759 [details] Comment Box Issues.xls We know how comments look and what small fonts are, this sample document tells nothing
I decided to hijack this Bug for my assumption in Comment 7 Currently lots of chin-ups are required if a user needs different font size, font type or whatever else in his comments. This would become more easy if LibO would have an own style for Comments to define Comment style But what I read in AOOo issue is not very promising.
@ Rainer: > Please do not do such changes without any further action the bug. Sorry!
... and because I was so sorry, I hit RETURN to early; I wanted to explain: Changing Status to NEW, because Rainer’s re-formulation of this bug in the Summary and in comment #12 is a valid and very reasonable enhancement request. I hope this action was OK ;-)
I submitted "Bug 56153 - Hidden Comment box appears at default place and not at place to where moved with active 'Show Comment'" for the "unexpected appearance" problem.
Hi Regina, seems you have some knowledge concerning this Style issue (I saw your workaround at "[api-dev] Changing font and font size of comments in Calc "). Can you leave a comment concerning feasibility (Comment 7, 12 and following) and may be some advice?
Looks like the same issue as Bug 103064. Normally, reporter there should've searched before opening and that should be marked as duplicate. But, since discussion there is more active, I set this one as dupe. Please add to discussion there should you find something missing (but without quoted text!). Or set back to New if you feel this duplicate is wrong. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 103064 ***
On second thought, sorry, this one is for Calc, Bug 103064 is for Writer.
In current master with https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=3e4b8463f288d87f91cd5bc864d30ae02d4f5579 , there is a dedicated "Note" drawing style that is applied to new comments. So let's call this fixed.
