Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 15576
Auto resizing of inserted formfields
Last modified: 2014-03-26 10:44:44 UTC
Insert a form field using the formbutton from the tools menu (left on screen - button 5 counting from the top), Click right mouse-button and select position and size, Select size-tab, Auto-resize to the amount of text entered in the field, is not available/highlighted for use, Application of this feature fairly important in standard forms.
LS, I was informed by a fellow Oo user that I looked at the wrong place. Field resizing DOES work in wordprocessor but ONLY when the field is entered as follows: Tool bar (left hand side of screen) 4th Button Insert field Select the T-tool (text tool) Right click on field Select Postion and Size Go to Tab Size NOW the adjust to tekst length button is active Therefore the defect status should maybe be replaced by a request for enhancement request. Best regards, Antoine Maartens
