For anyone else who is having issues with the 'Field name' column being
way too narrow in the 'Standard Filter' dialog, here is what I did to
fix the issue (on Ubuntu 20.04, LibreOffice 6.4.7.2) by allowing the
column to be widened by resizing the dialog:
First backup the file just in case:
sudo cp
/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/config/soffice.cfg/modules/scalc/ui/standardfilterdialog.ui
/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/config/soffice.cfg/modules/scalc/ui/standardfilterdialog.ui.bak
Now change the resizable property for the dialog to True.
So from this:
<object class="GtkDialog" id="StandardFilterDialog">
<property name="can_focus">False</property>
<property name="border_width">6</property>
<property name="title" translatable="yes"
context="standardfilterdialog|StandardFilterDialog">Standard Filter</property>
<property name="resizable">False</property>
To this:
<object class="GtkDialog" id="StandardFilterDialog">
<property name="can_focus">False</property>
<property name="border_width">6</property>
<property name="title" translatable="yes"
context="standardfilterdialog|StandardFilterDialog">Standard Filter</property>
<property name="resizable">True</property>
Then find the 4 GtkComboBoxText objects with ids from field1 to field4, and add
the "hexexpand" property.
So from this:
<object class="GtkComboBoxText" id="field1">
<property name="visible">True</property>
<property name="can_focus">False</property>
<accessibility>
To this:
<object class="GtkComboBoxText" id="field1">
<property name="visible">True</property>
<property name="can_focus">False</property>
<property name="hexpand">True</property>
<accessibility>
Optionally, if you don't want the 'Value' column to also expand when resized,
then find the 4 GtkComboBoxText objects with ids from val1 to val4, and remove
or set the "hexexpand" property to False.
So from this:
<object class="GtkComboBoxText" id="val1">
<property name="visible">True</property>
<property name="can_focus">False</property>
<property name="hexpand">True</property>
To this:
<object class="GtkComboBoxText" id="val1">
<property name="visible">True</property>
<property name="can_focus">False</property>
<property name="hexpand">False</property>
In my opinion this should be the default behavior.
