Of course we can abstain from this look > and feel and just make it start outside the cell with zero distance. Let me put an example of the difference that I am trying to convey. If a user sets borders to a cell, those borders are chosen by the user and I see this as part of a main layer, not an auxiliary layer. Cell borders might be considered of lesser importance than cell contents, or formulas, but they are still part of user's choice, and they have a specified width (among other properties). OTOH, cell's limits are surrounded by gridlines, which are usually displayed – gridlines could be hidden by user's choice, but that's not the point here. The gridlines are an auxiliary artifact (therefore, they are never on top of cell borders added by the user), and users don't need to see their width in a proportional ratio in relation to the cell's size (width/height). As long as the gridlines mark the cell's limits without interfering with real work, they fulfill their role. Making the gridlines grow in the same proportion as the cells when zooming-in would be counterproductive. I see the active-cell surrounding line in a similar way as gridlines. As long as the active-cell line is clearly seen, without blocking other more-relevant items (cell content, cell border, comment indicator...), it does not need to have more/less (now outer) distance in relation to the cell's limit, whichever the zoom factor. The outer distance could be maintained. When zooming-in, I don't need to see the active-cell line more clearly than with another zoom, as I am focusing on some main item, not on auxiliary ones. This is just the way I see this matter, as a user. Experts could of course have a deeper and broader understanding of these things. BTW, zoom factors in Calc go as far as 400%, not more than that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
