Description ffs 2020-10-09 16:29:16 UTC
Description:
I imported a picture into my document.
I positioned it nicely.
I saved the document as docx
Later I reloaded it and it wasn't in the correct place or the correct style - bollocks but this particular nuisance occurs all the time with LO and MS formats.

However... this time there's more.  When I click on the picture and look at it's properties it has become -25,799.00 cm wide (also 119cm tall but that's wrong if the aspect ratio is supposed to be correct).  For reference it was 10cm wide before saving.

Now this magic number appears to herald some additional buggy behaviour - I can no longer change the size of the figure, what ever I do the properties says it is -25,799.00 cm wide (sometimes the height changes to 0 cm but the image doesn't change).

I can only think this is some kind of overflow or maths error.  I'm used to LO and docx not playing nicely with figures but this problem takes the piss.

FWIW yesterday I was using an older version of LO and while I had the usual wonky reloading of figures this problem did not occur.  Today I'm using: Version: 6.4.6.2
Build ID: 1:6.4.6-0ubuntu0.20.04.1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: kf5; 
Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded


I'm afraid I don't know the version I was using yesterday (system upgrade) but it was not significantly old.




Steps to Reproduce:
I don't know if I can reproduce this reliably - it seems to occur at random when saving files to docx format and reloading.  If they contain figures it's always a gamble if they will load up in the correct place.

Actual Results:
Insert figure, save file, reload file and if you're lucky it's in the same place, if you're not luck it isn't and if you're really unlucky the size is -25,799.00 cm

Expected Results:
Figures are in the correct place and the correct size with the correct wrapping and anchor options


Reproducible: Always
