Description Rainer Bielefeld 2007-03-01 07:30:07 UTC
I upgraded from  "2.0.2  German version WIN XP: [680m5(Build9011)]"  to "2.2.0RC2 
Multilanguage/German version WIN XP: [680m9(Build9124)]". Measuring unit in
WRITER 2.0 was "mm", in "2.2." it had changed to "cm"

@ mru: Please have a look.

I tried with OO 2.0.3 and 2.1 (upgraded these to OO 2.2) but I did not have the
problem. Measuring unit mm was transferred correctly to OO 2.2.
I think, this happened due to a corrupted configuration which was carried
through from OO 2.00 to 2.0.2 and finally to OO 2.2.
Rainer, can you still reproduce the problem when doing a fresh OO 2.0.2
installation and upgrading this (of course when also deleting the configuration
folder in "Documents and settings")?

rainerbielefeld,
as a side note, virtualization (using for example free Virtual PC from 
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/default.mspx) 
allows one to not need whole PC - some amount of disk space and RAM is all you 
need to emulate full PC an do testing.

Yeah, this could help us a lot! Thank you very much, Rainer!

Indeed, I can not confirm that problem on another PC with 2.2RC2 installation
from the same '....install.exe'. I believe we should close this issue if it has
not been confirmed until next 2.2 build.
Comment 7 michael.ruess 2007-03-05 15:30:59 UTC
Yes, I also think so. I believe, that this really was insisted by a corrupted
config.
