On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce
this.
After a gdb session, it seems the problem is here:
224 if ( _pType->aCreateParams.isEmpty() )
225 {
226 SetPrecision(_pType->nPrecision);
227 SetScale(_pType->nMinimumScale);
228 }
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/dbaccess/source/ui/tabledesign/FieldDescriptions.cxx#224
Indeed, the types which have the problem have _pType->aCreateParams not
empty and so don't enter the if block.
NUMBER => "PRECISION,SCALE"
VARCHAR => "LENGTH"
etc.
Lionel: What's the purpose of this if block? Could it be removed?

Title:
[Upstream] field length inherited
Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I define a table field in LbreOfficeBase I notice that the
following field types NUMERIC, DECIMAL, FLOAT, VARCHAR,
VARCHAR_IGNORECASE, inherit the latest set length, that is: when I add
a field it is set to VARCHAR (100), if I change it to FLOAT its length
is automatically set to 17, if I come back to VARCHAR, the field
length is not set back to 100, but still remains 17.
