Description jeremygharrison 2010-05-01 15:54:10 UTC

In page preview, in header & footer, the lengths of displayed fields (date,
time, sheet name, etc.) are not calculated (or used) correctly, hence start
points of field, or following field, are incorrect, causing truncation or
overlap of fields, certainly at some display sizes (zoom levels). In particular,
a date in the right area of footer/header appears to lose the last digit
(appearing as 01/05/201, not 01/05/2010).

To recreate:
1. Create new Calc spreadsheet, with some data.
2. Edit -> Header/Footer   
3. Add succession of fields (followed by a character perhaps) to left & centre
areas, and just date/time to right areas; OK to apply.
4. File -> Page Preview. Headers/footers do not display correctly.

Note: All appears correct when doing Print or Export as PDF.
At some zoom levels, hence character sizes, it appears correct in page preview.
So my supposition would be that in page preview header/footer routine, the
granularity associated with character sizes for field lengths is coarser than
that for the characters.
