            Bug ID: 140006
           Summary: Drop down field length returned to version 6 length
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: jwarm...@0-net.net

Description:
I submitted this as a bug however I was told it is not one even though it is
fine in version 6 but not 7.  

I use Calc with large validation fields and set them up as drop downs so the
user can select an option from a list.  In Version 6 the drop down fields would
display much larger making it easier for the user to pick the correct option
however in version 7 these fields display much shorter and cut the text off so
it is harder for the user to see what they are choosing.  v7
https://ibb.co/7kWhJnH and this image for version 6 https://ibb.co/WtqL3S6. 
You may also reference Bug 138579.    

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a large validation cell with drop downs
2.Attempt to view the dropdown
3.

Actual Results:
The filed is clipped in version 7 but in version 6 it displays the length of
the field.  

Expected Results:
Version 6 behavior,  however long the cell is that is how long the drop down
should be.  


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I still believe this is a bug as the behavior suddenly changed from version 6
to version 7.  The images clearly show the difference.  I don't even understand
why anyone would want it the way it is configured in 7 as the rest of the
length is just wasted space.
