Description Andreas J. Guelzow 2011-10-20 20:36:24 UTC 
B5: x
C5: some long string longer than the natural width of 3 columns
D5: x

change the horizontal alignment of C5 to center

as expected the text in C5 is truncated on both sides. This is good.

now clear D5

I would have expected the text to be still truncated on the left (but not on the right). I observe that the text is truncated on neither side, so the text overwrites the content in cell B5.
Comment 1 Andreas J. Guelzow 2011-10-20 20:37:46 UTC 
Note that if B5 is empty and D5 has content then the behaviour is as expected.
Comment 2 Andreas J. Guelzow 2011-10-21 04:01:52 UTC 
I should emphasize that the problem only occurs if the string in C5 is long enough that it wants to spill in A5 (ie. longer than 3 columns). If it is shorter everything works fine!
Comment 3 Andreas J. Guelzow 2011-10-21 04:16:38 UTC 
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
