Description Ansgar 2015-11-18 22:01:04 UTC
1. Launch LibreOffice
2. If necessary: Menu 'Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice -> General - Use LibreOffice Dialogs <ok>'
3. Menu 'File' -> 'Open'
4. Resize dialog and columns to your liking.

Next time file open dialog is openend size and columns are reset to default values. This is very inconvenient, because the default size is rather small.
In older LibreOffice versions (e.g. 4.2) the setting of the dialog size was preserved.

The file open dialog is still reset to a default size when opened next time. The width of the columns is now preserved, though. See also Bug 96393
