Also, padding is zero and I don't think the .35mm border would make as
much difference as noted in my last message. However, I hadn't actually
counted them and thanks for informing me of this.

Matthew,
can you please describe what result you expect and what you get in
Writer.
Did you take the border width and padding into account? For
OpenDocument they are considered to be included in the cell width.

ok, great. found that information. now my next question is: Where
in the source code is that formula applied in Writer to get the
results it does? that is, Wc = (RcWs)/Rs and using 1440twips/in.
The results I get do not match that of Writer. Is some rounding
going on that I need to be aware of?
thanks,
Matthew

Matthew,
the style:rel-column-width attribute is described in section 15.9.1 of
the OpenDocument specification:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/12573/OpenDocument-v1.0-os.sxw
I assume OpenOffice.org has inserted the attributes because there
was no absolute width specified for the table itself. In this case,
OOo assumes that the table has a relative width, and the columns
therefore as well.

Seasons Greetings to all,
I am sending this to both lists because I'm not sure which group
this issue really belongs to since it has xml Writer format
properties but is also a development issue I think. If most of you
folks who are regulars here monitor both lists just let me know and
I'll send any further messages to one list or the other.
Another question please
In a table (#1) I've generated, the following is created by
Writer when I File | Save:
<style:table-column-properties style:column-width="51.01mm"
style:rel-column-width="65535*"/>
and in a table (#2) I get:
<style:table-column-properties style:column-width="50.01mm"
style:rel-column-width="32767*"/>
and in a third (#3) this:
<style:table-column-properties style:column-width="50.01mm"
style:rel-column-width="32768*"/>
I did not generate the */style/:rel-column-width*,* *only the
style:column-width property.
* *So how is this number calculated? What is it /rel/ative to?
I'm assuming it's called that because it's the column width
relative to something. The values are all different even though
the style:column-width is the same. I could find no documentation
on this element in the odt spec or anywhere else for that matter.
Can anyone provide some knowledge transfer please? It would be
much appreciated.
If anyone is interested, what I'm doing is, from xml data via
several xslt stylesheets generating all the individual files needed
by an OpenOffice Writer document dependent on what objects are in
it, e.g. formulae, images, tables, etc. Then using the java zip
class in a rhino javascript extension function (I'm using the Xalan
xslt processor), I zip the files together to produce a Writer
document. It works quite well, except that a few areas seem murky
such as with equation settings (which I mentioned in another
e-mail) and the issue I describe here.
Peace to you,
