Description William Cattey 2011-07-22 11:26:47 UTC
Created attachment 49434 [details]
Native OOo format with simple 3 column doc.

Repeat by:

Create OOo document with a multi-column format.
Set the separator line to "NONE".
Save in default odf format.
SaveAs Word 2007 XML format.

Expected behavior:
Separator Line should be NONE.

Actual behavior:
Separator Line of 0.05pts is set.

Going back to the odf version, the value NONE is properly recorded, but
is never properly saved/restored in .docx format.

Example files are attached.

I think this is the erroneous behavior described by the reporter.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:

Comment 5 sasha.libreoffice 2012-01-30 03:28:18 UTC
reproduced in LibO 3.6.0 master on Fedora 64 bit
when save in docx, separator style is lost,
When open in docx, column width also lost

Still there in 4.2.
