Confirmed in Ubuntu 10.10 LibreOffice Writer. I tested this issue for consistency via the Terminal:
lowriter -nologo click Format -> Page... -> Columns tab -> highlight 1 in Columns combo box -> type 2 -> immediately hit Enter on keyboard and notice two columns are created. Hence, hitting Enter immediately works if in the Columns combo box but not in the Spacing combo box. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10 apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer libreoffice-writer: Installed: 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu3~maverick1 Candidate: 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu3~maverick1 Version table: *** 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu3~maverick1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Tags added: lo33 ** Summary changed: - Width between columns is not updated all the time + Inconsistent Writer combo box action in Format -> Page -> Columns tab -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707380 Title: Inconsistent Writer combo box action in Format -> Page -> Columns tab -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
