Description Unknown 2003-02-11 19:17:13 UTC 
It would be nice if margins could be adjusted by dragging margin indicator 
lines (as in Excel) as opposed to having to set the width by specifying the 
units.

Actually, it may not be such a problematic bug.. Indeed, there's quite
a  good workaround for this issue. We can easily adjust margins by
going in "View/Pagebreaks Preview" (it may not be the exact menu entry
since I'm using the french version of OO) and by dragging pagebreak lines.
Comment 3 bettina.haberer 2003-11-06 10:44:07 UTC 
Adjusting margins by draggable margin indicators within the page
preview. Considered for 'OO.o later'.
