Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 65759
Number and Date fields in Base Report ignore table vertical alignment settings
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:45:09 UTC
Using the attached database, look at the design of the report. Note that all of the fields in the report are vertically aligned to the top of the cell. Run the report. Note that the numerical and date fields are aligned to the bottom of the cell.
Created attachment 36711 [details] Database example with report showing alignment problem
clu->stephenmurphy: may you describe it more precisely and step by step thx
1. Using the report wizard create a new report for a table that contains numerical and/or date fields. It will help if one of the fields in the database is a text field with a lot of text in. This will expand the cells vertically in the final report and illustrate the problem clearly. The attached database is designed with this in mind. 2. When you get to the final tab on the wizard, choose to edit the design of the report. 3. Select all of the fields in the report and choose to align them all to the top of the table cells using the table vertical alignment tool (right click on selected cells - go to Cell -> Top) 4. Note that in edit mode, all the fields are now vertically aligned to the top of the cell. Save the report 5. Run the report. Note that the any numerical or date fields are not aligned to the top of the cell.
i can reproi that -> formatting get lost by saving
set target
set new
As discussed with fme this problem may be related to issue 55923 (Alignment of numbers not saved in reports)
Cannot be fixed until code freeze. Adjust target to 3.x.
