Field size not changes in table design mode
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:33:53 UTC
Field size not changes in table design mode, with some data types. binary, text, decimal, numeric. Reproduce: - open existing table in edit mode or create new one, - add new field - select Field type: Tiny Integer field length became 8, - change Field type to: text[varchar], field length not changes, remains 8, - change Field type to: integer, field length became 32, - change Field type to: text[varchar], field length not changes remains 32, - change Field type to: double, field length became 64, - change Field type to: text[varchar], field length not changes remains 64, - change Field type to: date, field changes, - change Field type to: text[varchar], field length changes to 50,
Which behavior do you prefer? I don't get where the error is. And is this also true for OOo 320?
I checked again, it is same in 320, it not connected to hsqldb19. May be it is not defect more an enhancement. Can be better if you can get the default value when you change data type, in design view.
