Bug ID: 159823
Summary: Tables in Impress should support setting row height
and column width (as in Writer)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.4.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Impress
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In Writer, if you insert a table in a document and right-click it, you'll see a
context menu with "Size" and the "Row height" and "Column width". With them,
you can set exactly the height/width you want. This is super useful when you
want columns and rows to have a specific size.
However, these options do not exist in Impress. It is simply not possible to
set the height of rows (or the width of columns) by providing a specific value.
So I propose Impress tables also support defining height/width by value, as in
Writer.
This should not be too difficult to implement, since it is achievable via
macros. So the API is already there, we're just lacking the UI.
To run the macro below, simply create an Impress document, insert a table and
select it.
Sub TableWidth
oTable = ThisComponent.CurrentSelection.getByIndex(0).Model
oColumn = oTable.Columns.getByIndex(0)
' See original column size
MsgBox oColumn.Size
' Change column size
oColumn.Size = 1000
MsgBox oColumn.Size
End Sub
