Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a new document. 2. Set the column width of A to 3cm and B to 5cm. 3. Select A1 and B1 and merge the cells. 4. Look at the column width of B. It will now show you that the column width is 3cm but it should be 5cm.
not reproducible with LO 4.2.1.1 (Win 8.1)
Could not reproduce with Version: 4.2.2.1 Build ID: 3be8cda0bddd8e430d8cda1ebfd581265cca5a0f Ubuntu 13.10 x64. Because we are 2 who couldn't reproduced, marked as works for me - Sophie
I have tested this now with the upstream version 4.2.1.1 (d7dbbd7842e6a58b0f521599204e827654e1fb8b) and can still reproduce the problem. I have even set LANG to C to go sure its not a localization-related problem. After setting A ro 3cm, B to 5cm, merging A1 and B1 I'm getting for A 1.18" and for B 1.18" too.
Hello Sworddragon2, *, I cannot confirm this with LO Version: 4.2.3.3 Build ID: 6c3586f855673fa6a1576797f575b31ac6fa0ba3 (parallel installed, following the instructions from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel) nor with LO Version: 4.1.5.3 Build-ID: 1c1366bba2ba2b554cd2ca4d87c06da81c05d24 (both with installed Germanophone lang- as well as helppack under Debian Testing i686) ... :( What I did: 1. Rightclick on the column header from column A and chose "Column Width..." and set it to "3,00cm" 2. Rightclick on the column header from column B and chose "Column Width..." and set it to "5,00cm" 3. Selected cell A1 and B1 with <Alt>+<ArrowLeft>, but you can mark both columns, as it would be no difference ... ;) 4. "Format – Merge Cells – Merge Cells" I see the columns A and B merged into one cell/column with a width of the sum of both column width (8cm). And I see, that the column headers A and B are both as before (3cm and 5cm). Did you do anything different? Or could you attach an ODS file to this bug, so that we can have a look at it, please? Sorry for the inconvenience Thomas.
Created attachment 97002 [details] Example document In the attachments is an example document created with LibreOffice Calc 4.2.3.2 on a new profile. A is 3cm and B 5cm but on looking at B it shows 3cm (or the related unit dependent on your system).

So its just a reading issue. Does anybody know how to track this more?
I can reproduce this issue on openSUSE 13.1 with LibreOffice Version: 4.1.6.2 Build ID: 410m0(Build:2) and Version: 4.3.0.0.beta1 Build ID: 2e39c7e59c8fc8b16a54c3d981dceef27fb0c07f As a consequence I'm changing affected LibreOffice version. In the following comment I'll link a screencast of the issue.
