Description jumbo444 2008-03-31 15:59:42 UTC 
Hello,

Steps to reproduce the bug :
- create new word processor document
- modify page style with columns with different width AND some border
  for instance 3 columns with width : 3cm, 8cm, 4cm and 1cm between each column
and a thin border on the left and on the right
=> everything seems OK
- reopen page style, choose column tab => column widths are modified to 4.98 cm
each and 1cm between columns.

This does not occur if page style has no border. From discussion on
http://user.services.openoffice.org/fr/forum/ftopic9581.html, it seems to be
previous to 2.4.0.

MRU->OS: In page format dialog, when setting columns as described, then
switching to the border tab and applying a default border, going back to the
columns tab, the columns will be changed to the mentioned values. 
This only seems to be a problem of the dialog. When confirming the dialog
WITHOUT switching to the column tab in the end, column vlues are applied as
expected.

Hello,

Bug still present in OOO330m7.

As explained above, an easy workaround is to
- change column width,
- valid dialog box of page style
- reopen dialog box of page style and add border
- valid dialog box of page style
