Summary0004986: Column Gap in PP has always precedence on Column Width even if Column Width is selected
DescriptionAs summary
Steps To Reproduce1. Draw a text frame of 30 picas width
2. Set Properties > Shape to 2 columns
3. Set the Column Width to 14 picas (the gap will automatically be set to 2 picas)
4. Fill with text
5. Go back to PP and make that frame 40 picas wide
6. The Gap will remain at 2 picas and the columns will enlarge to 19 picas.

This is unexpected.

If you work with Column width, then Column Width should have precedence on Gap and the way around if you work with Gap.
Additional InformationThis is not new to 1.3.4 cvs.
Present in 1.3.3.4 on Ubuntu and Mac OSX

well, internally Scribus only stores the number of columns and the gap.
column width is always a derived property, so this behaviour is expected.

I'd say this is a wontfix until we enhance Scribus with a constraint solver.
