Spreadsheet showing graphic expansion bug
Let me add some steps you may follow with the attached file: 1. Note the size of the graphic over cell B2 - it roughly fits within that cell. 2. Collapse the outline group that covers rows 2-6 by clicking the '-' in the outline area to the left of the spreadsheet. 3. Click the '+' to expand the outline group again. Note how the graphic has now expanded in size so that it encompasses rows 2-6. Hi Adam, to workaround this defect, just select the graphical object, open the context menu and select Position&Size. Now tag the Protect checkboxes and close the dialog. The object will not change it's size anymore. Hi Niklas, talked with Falko about this Issue and we agrred that this is a bug and we should not chnage the size of an object after unhiding cells between the starting and ending point of an graphic. Set to later but would be fine to have it in 2.0 Frank Frank, Yes, that does fix the problem in that file. Thanks! However & unfortunately, this case was created as a simple case that was meant to demonstrate a problem I have with importing an Excel file that is used by the rest of my coworkers. So, I don't know if there is another problem related to importing xls files, or some other related bug at play here. This Excel file has *many* of these graphics inside of outline groups, and they all exhibit this stretching behavior when I import the file into OO & expand the outline groups. The saved version of the file has all outline groups collapsed. What's strange is that I cannot select the graphics in this document (either when the outline groups are expanded or collapsed), so I cannot use the workaround suggested. And since the outline groups are collapsed to begin with, this also presents a problem with selecting the graphics. I'll see if I can come up with a same xls file with non-proprietary info in it that demonstrates this bug. If you feel I should enter a separate bug on this xls file issue, please let me know. A minor update: I couldn't select the images because the file was read-only. Once I did a Save-As to sxc format, I was able to select the images. However, there are still several problems: - The outline groups are collapsed, so if I was to protect the size & place of the images, then they remain in their squashed state when the outline groups are expanded. This is the blocker of this issue. The only workaround is to ask the person saving the file to save the file with all groups expanded, but the file is quite large (in terms of # rows/cols & outline groups), and most people on the team would object to this. Plus, I know what I'd hear if I aksed that they need to do this, just so I can read it on my Linux box: "See? This is why you have to use Windows & Office, you hippie freak!" :) The following are just big annoyances: - There are a *lot* of images, so it takes far too long for me to select each one. - There are images stacked on top of one another (mostly due to the collapsed group, but also because there are some "dialog box" images that are composites of images. I was using "Send to back" so that I could get at the underlying images, but it was too much work. Anyways, thank you for the feedback. And thanks for a really great open source product!

Excel document that shows this bug & problem with workaround
Hi Adam, your problem regarding the selection of the Graphics: Have you used the Navigator (F5) ? This powerfull feature let's you select objects by just doubleclicking on it's reference. Regarding the XLS Import: No a new Issue isn't needed, as the import itself is not accountable for this behaviour. About the timeframe: Niklas tries to fix it for OOo2.0 but there is a lot of work to do for this version so it might not get into it. Best regards Frank *** Issue 76776 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** This also happens with checkboxes inside an outline group. They get stretched and, therefore, change their apparent position. *** Issue 81889 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 85888 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** "to workaround this defect, just select the graphical object, open the context menu and select Position&Size. Now tag the Protect checkboxes and close the dialog. The object will not change it's size anymore." In the to-be-attached demo I have such protected graphics, and the effect persists regardless Created attachment 51419 [details]

This issue might be related to Issue 93531 *** Issue 93711 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 89723 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** I think that I should set keyword "ms_interoperability" for this issue.
