Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org-report-builder
Reproduce:
1. Open the program Open Office Database. (Make sure you have installed the
Report builder also!)
2. Click the Report icon to select reports section
3. Click Insert / Report... (OpenOffice.org Base Report form opens)
4. Click Format / Page... (Page Setup opens)
5. In the check boxes for Margins there will show some default values ( e.g. 2
cm )
6. Change the value in the "Left" check box, e.g. "1 cm" and press Tab (the
value changes to 1 cm and the cursor jumps to "Right" checkbox). Continue
changing the values to "1 cm" for all four fields and then press "OK".
7. Notice that the Save option (the icon) does not go active (you can not save
the new values). Also notice that the margins did not change. Verify that the
new margin values did not save by re-opening the Page Setup session. You will
find that the "default" values "2 cm" has populated all four fields.
The problem seems to be related only to the two first check boxes
("Left" and "Right"). It is possible to change the "Top" and "Bottom"
check boxes by first entering a new value into "Bottom" or "Top" check
box. Those new values saves if you do not "touch" the "Left" and "Right"
check boxes.
System data:
Ubuntu 7.10 (64bit-version), Open Office 2.3.0 database
(Sun-Report-Builder_0.oxt version 1.0.1 downloaded from Synaptic Package
Manager). The system is totally new, clean Ubuntu (no MS Windows etc), 64 bit
Intel (E6750 Core 2 Duo).
In order to verify the bug, I installed exactly the same program but in
32bit-version on a second computer (Athlon XP 2200+). Also this time I
downloaded the Sun-Report-Builder from Synaptic Package Manager). In
32bit-version the bug does not exist. (I have created some reports also
in Windows XP and the Report builder works fine also there).
The problem seems to be related to 64bit systems.
