Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 111731
Object dimensions incorrect when MeasurementUnit = mm
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:44:35 UTC
Using Writer, draw a large rectangle; >10cm x 10cm Select rectangle, mouse-click to bring up menu, select Position & Size. Size boxes show correct dimensions of the rectangle. Select Cancel. Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org Writer -> General Change Measurement Unit to Millimeter, select OK. Select rectangle, mouse-click to bring up menu, select Position & Size. Size boxes show incorrect dimensions. A rectangle of size 250mm x 250mm is reported as 99.99mm x 99.99mm
This defect also exists in 3.2.1 rc1.
@OS: when default measurement unit is set to millimeter, the position an size dialog of a Draw object will always show values of max 99,99mm. Changing the size to 105x105 will take effect when closing the dialog but when re-opening, the value is reset to 99,99mm. Notes: - reproducible also in 2.4.2 - only for Draw object (not for frames) - in Writer only (not in Draw or Draw objects in Calc)
