Description ivantsyba 2013-08-20 14:00:51 UTC
Problem description: 
Maximum fixed line spacing limited to 10 cm. Today, I need to set bigger spacing (with font size around 500 points) but was unable to do this.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Try to set fixed line spacing bigger than 10 cm


Current behavior:
Maximum fixed line spacing limited to 10 cm

Expected behavior:
Maximum fixed line spacing not limited to 10 cm
              
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: 3.6.2.2 release

Still the case with 4.2.0.0.alpha0+. Looks a valid enhancement request to me.
Comment 2 Oliver Grimm 2019-05-28 08:10:16 UTC
still missingg in

Version: 6.1.5.2
Build-ID: 1:6.1.5-3
CPU-Threads: 2; BS: Linux 4.19; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: gtk3; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.utf8); Calc: group threaded
Comment 3 NISZ LibreOffice Team 2020-09-22 06:42:54 UTC
Also spacing above and below paragraph have the same 10 cm constraint.

This is also bad for interoperability, since Word allows 55 cm i.e. the whole allowed page size: see bug #103206 and bug #122628 for examples.
