Description Herman Viaene 2020-06-15 10:04:30 CEST

Description of problem:
I have used Libreoffice 6.3 on Mageia 7 on a desktop PC because I needed the Firebird engine. I created forms in which I placed an image on the page and reports where I put the same image on the page header.
I copied the odb to a Win10 laptop where the LibreOffice got upgraded to 6.4.4 without problems. All display the same way as on the 6.3 dessktop.
I did the LibreOffice update from Mageia's repo to 6.4.4 on  the laptop (has both Mageia and Win10 partitions, no sharing of partitions) and there the dimensions of the image on both forms and reports are not respected, they turn out too large (about the size of the original png file).
On the desktop I removed the Libreoffice 6.3 and installed the rpm's from the LibreOffice site and there the issue with the images does not occur.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
LibreOffice 6.3.2 - 6.4.4

Comment 2 Nicolas Lécureuil 2021-01-10 00:53:37 CET

is it still valid with libreoffice 6.4.7.2?

Comment 3 Herman Viaene 2021-01-10 09:07:26 CET

Yes. I run the forms as stanadalone, and there in its .odt file I can reduce the image size. But reports are generated each time afresh in the .odb an there it is always way too big (almost page size) when running the report. It looks OK in Design View.
