Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Tab settings corrupted on changing units
Product: Writer
Version: 4.0.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: formatting

There seems to be a rounding error causing the tab settings to be corrupted on
changing units.
Replication 1
1. Open Preferences/writer/general.
2. Set units to centimetres
3. Set tabs to 1.00 cm.
4. Change units to inches.
5. Change units to centimetres. Value corrupts to 0.99.
6. Change units to millimetres. Value corrupts to 0.991.
Replication 2
1. Close and repeat 1-3 above using 0.89 as tab value.
2. Change units to millimetres. Value corrupts to 0.891. It should be 0.890.
Replication 3
1. Close and reopen.
3. Set units to points.
4. Set tabs to 25.0 points.
5. Change units to inches.
6. Change units back to points. Value corrupts to 25.2 points.
7. Et cetera.
Presumably this is because AOO is still working natively in inches and
converting other values – but using insufficient significant figures when so
doing.
