Replicated the issue on Windows 10
Version : Apache OpenOffice 4.1.7

Unit of Measurement in Spacing section changes to Inch (") when you click on
and click out of the Text Area a  couple of Times. This issue happens with any
of the units available under Tools>Options>OpenOffice Impress>General

STEPS TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE
------------------------------
1. Open Impress 
2. Go to Tools>Options>OpenOffice Impress>General
3. Select a Unit of measurement different from Inch. e.g.Pica. Click on Ok.
4. Create a new presentation with a Title Text Area and Content Text Area
5. Click on the border of the text box
6. In Properties Sidebar expand "Position and Size"
7. Make sure that Unit of measurement  in Spacing and Position/Size  sections
is the same as the unit selected in step 3. In this case is Pi.
8. Click out off of the text box then click on the text box border again. 
9. Repeat step 8 four times
10. Click on Title Text box
11. Notice that unit of measurement in Spacing section has changed to Inch (")

The user is not able to modify the Spacing unit even if it is updated in
Tools>Options>OpenOffice Impress>General. So the user needs to create the
presentation again to have the proper unit of measurement.
