In the "old" OpenOffice Version 3.2 it was possible, to resize a commentfield during editing. Do not know when exactly this was changed in LibreOffice, but in the latest downloadable build (4.3.6 installed and using, 4.1.4.2 was the first LO version I started using), one have to go the following steps in order to resize a commentfield 1) insert comment 2) edit the comment 3) show the comment 4) resize the comment 5) edit the comment 6) un-show the comment (in the earlier versions, it was just 1) insert comment and 2) edit the comment with resizing) No idea why this was changed, but it is extremely user-unfriendly.
