Re: Minutes of ESC call 2017-08-17
So what's the plan for handling the line spacing changes outfall? After this change LO is currently unusable as it completely breaks existing documents and the bugs don't see much activity.

Hello, > + build a write-up of the differences cross-platform (Xisco) > [ almost done, will send to the ML ] > Basically the line spacing differences across platforms has been reduced after this commit[1] ( visual example of an issue fixed by the mentioned commit: Windows [2] and Linux [3] ) although there are still some bugs showing differences between Linux and Windows [4][5] Besides, it seems some documents look different before and after the commit now. These are the problems I could find in Bugzilla related to the commit: 1. Some fonts with bad metrics ( [6],[7] ) were displayed better before, however the problem needs to be fixed in the fonts, not in LibreOffice, thus, NOTOURBUG. Note: Khaled also fixed it for OpenSymbol fonts [9]. 2. UI: Some dialogs labels are slightly cropped and vertically cramped [9]. Differences look bigger on Linux/Mac than on Windows. This bug [10] seems similar. 3. Web view: Line spacing is smaller than before [11]. This really looks like a bug to me. 4. Calc/PDF: line spacing looks smaller when using line breaks [12]. As a solution, this bug [13] has been suggested.
