LibreOffice base: fix form dialogue size

users
#1

Hi all:

I use LibreOffice 6.0.1 on Ubuntu/Debian to access a PostgreSQL database. The document contains several forms, which shall have a different (optimised according to the elements in them) size.

However, when I resize one form the a convenient size, all other forms open with the same (typically wrong) size. Needless to mention that this is a really annoying behaviour…

Is it possible to auto-adjust the size of a form to the optimum proportions (i.e. the size of the area containing all items, plus maybe some border region)? Or, as an alternative, to save the /individual/ size of each form separately, so resizing one form will not modify the size of all others?

Thanks in advance for any insight,
Cheers,
Albrecht.

Yes, this is known buggy behaviour, cf:
