[libreoffice-users] writer-how to have in a table column width as I like and how to add a column without stretching the other

libreoffice 4.1.5.3 on linux opensuse 13.1 kde 4.11.5
if I have a table with 4 column how can I get for example the first 
column width of 2cm the second and third of 3cm and the fourth of 4cm?? 
giving numbers not with mouse??

I tried:
rightclick > table... >tab table and i tried both selecting automatic 
and left alignement
rightclick > table... >tab columns inserting values in the column width 
spaces
but writer also don't honour this becouse I suspect it maintain the 
global lenght of table
I also selected "adjust column proportionally" but nothing change, and 
also selecting "adjust column proportionally" "adapt table width" is 
automatically selected
I insert values in column width but writer doesnt obey to this becouse 
change the other

and also, how can I add a column without stretching the other??
if I select a column of 1cm width and rightclick >colunn>insert choosing 
1 column after writer add a column but strech the other conserving the 
global table width, I would like to ADD a column without touching the 
others column width

ciao :-) manythanks :-) pier
