Here my whole box uses the same style for each of the line break
separated segments. Ain't there a <br> equivalent in OOo that
would reflect the _visual_ line break better than putting
<text:p> which seems to indicate a logical structure rather than
a visual formatting ?
If this is about drawing objects (shapes) with text, then you can
create a line break within a paragraph by pressing Shift-Enter. In
cells, this is not supported.
I understand that. In fact I should have been clearer. The phenomenon
I describe happened in an import from Excel (the same that was the
subject of my previous mail).
I was wondering why OOo considers the necessity to convert a line
break to a series of paragraphs in the context of a shape (is that
what "text boxes" are called ?) attached to a cell.
I already found a number of instances in other files where the
structure:
<text:p style1><text:span style2>text1</text:span></text:p>
<text:p style1><text:span style2>text2</text:span></text:p>
<text:p style1><text:span style2>text3</text:span></text:p>
was used by OOo to implement an MS file line break. For a number of
reasons (not related to OOo but to tools that access the xml OOo
generates) this is not a practical and logical way to represent a
line break since the "paragraph" should encompass the whole set of
strings and the line break should be implemented as an "inline" part
of the paragraph. I may be wrong in my interpretation of what a
paragraph is though.
