TESTING on Ubuntu 14.04 + LO 4.3.5.2 REPRO Steps: - (default EN_US install of LibreOffice) - Open Draw - (OPTIONAL) This works regardless of whether something has been drawn - File -> Export -> (select from drop-down) PNG - Click 'Save' button - In the 'PNG Options' dialog, under the 'Size' heading, notice that: Width: 8.50 Inches Height: 11.00 Resolution: 37 Pixels/cm EXPECTED: All of the units of length to be the same (either inches or cm)

Not a very good idea. You can set something in the general draw options > 'unit of measurement', which you might set as points or cm. And keep the resulution as 'pixels per inch' (DPI) = inch, which might be a bit more commonly known.

Well my point here is that the width/height *and* resolution shouldn't necessarily have the same measurement, like you suggested. Would be nice if the resolution (also) could be changed in the options window.

On pc Debian x86-64 with LO Debian package 6.4.5 + French UI, I don't reproduce this. I've got: "cm" "pixels/cm" Could you give a try with a recent LO version?

Heiko/Xisco: I'm not an expert but I know that in France we use meters, centimeters, etc. in general but for resolution it's quite common to read "per inch". So I'm quite agree with MM, another option may be added. Any thoughts here? Sophie/Jean-Baptiste: since my opinion about resolution usage in France is subjective and don't have any stats, I may be wrong here so don't hesitate to tell if you disagree :-)
In general, I'm for a per-control setting of units (see bug 72662). DPI should be by default in dots per inch but if the user wants to change this it should be easier than going into the options. In this particular case, given the flexible solution takes time to implement, I don't see benefit from px/cm and would hard-code it to dpi (px/in).
I do not see a problem in LO 7 rc1. Indeed Width/Height and Resolution have their own unit respectively and the user can change them independently if she is not happy with the default. In the French UI, units are, by default, what is defined in Tools > Options > LibreOffice Draw > General for Width & Height and pixels/cm for the resolution. As I do not have reference in pixels/cm, I prefer pixels/inch for the resolution. Best regards. JBF
We have so many tickets around units - and as many opinions how to solve it. The resolution is usually measure in dpi, even in France. So let's change it.
