Description Lou 2010-11-11 15:38:09 UTC
There is text appearing on the second tab the the attached document. It looks like it might be part of a note but is appearing in the spreadsheet. Is this part of the document which is not appearing where it should? Thanks

File looks ok to me, i.e., same as in Excel.  That could be because I am
not completely sure about what to look for.

Ok, I looked at my work flow and this is what happened. The document came to me in thunderbird (on fedora 13). There is a thunderbird option for attachment which is "open" or "save as". I used "open" and since my default mail spreadsheet is gnumeric it opened it and that is where the spurious text appears (see attachment). I switched the default to openoffice calc and that does not happen. If the file is opened standalone outside of Thunderbird it appears normally as you discovered. Let me know if you need further info. - Lou

I am assuming you are talking about the text that overlaps around B15.

There is a text object there with a height of -6 [unknown unit].
That should cause us to not display the object, but we see -6 as invalid
and ignore it.

(/home/welinder/gnome-src/gnumeric/src/.libs/gnumeric:6533): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: value "-6.000000" of type `gdouble' is invalid or out of range for property `clip-height' of type `gdouble'
Comment 7 Lou 2010-11-11 21:33:34 UTC
Correct, it is the overlapping text starting at B15
