Format word wrap in Calc not working on long list
I just finished a list inside Calc of last names, some 30,000 of them. The problem is, at the column width (0.8") I decided on, the wider ones are not wrapping.

Just for fun I selected a few of them and placed them into a different column on that same sheet. Amazingly, they wrap just fine. I just finished a list of last names, some 30,000 of them. The problem is, at the column width (0.8") I decided on, the wider ones are not wrapping.

I'm guessing that LO Calc simply cannot manage the wrapping feature in a list this large but thought I'd give the forum a stab at some solution -- or a workaround.

Hello,
Do not know the answer to your problem but I am posting to let you know I have an 80,000+ row Calc file. I changed the city name column to your specs. Had no problem. Quick look shows all wrapping. Added another at the end & it wrapped also.
Did this on Ubuntu 20.04.1 Mate with LO v7.0.3.1 from TDF (The Document Foundation).
Hopefully someone else has an answer for you.
@fatfreek,
You should note your OS and Specific LO version.
