Uday <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from Uday <[email protected]> --- I replicated the bug on both Windows7 and Mac (version details listed below). Test Machine: Mac OSX 10.8.2 Office Writer Version: OOo 3.5 Build # 9611 and OOo 3.4.1 Build # 9593 Test Machine: Windows7 Office Writer Version: OOo 3.5 Build # 9611 In all the three versions of OOo on both the platforms (Mac and Windows7), I followed these steps: 1. Install both versions of OOo 3.4.1 and 3.5 on Mac and 3.5 on Windows 7. 2. Create a new Text document. Change the page height (using menu options Format > Page > Page tab). Change the height to 2.0. Click OK. 3. Change line spacing using menu option: Format > Paragraph > Indents & Spacing Tab > Line Spacing. Change Line Spacing drop-down to option "Fixed" and the value of Line spacing to 2.5 and then click OK. 4. Type any text in the document. Text is not visible. Follow-up tests: Test that shows dependence of Top/Bottom margins on page height and line spacing: Text to be out of range of visible area seems to be dependent on the top and bottom page margins (menu option: Format > Page > Page tab). For example: if you make the page top and bottom margins to be 0, Font "New Times roman", Font size 12 and Line Spacing 2.64, text goes out of range (Screenshot attached:TextNotVisible.png). If line spacing is 2.63, the top part of the text is visible. (Screenshot attached:TopPartofTextVisible.png). "Margin settings are out of print range" warning message appears if I change the top margin to 1.8 with all the other settings as above. Screenshot attached (MarginSettingsOutOfRange.png). Click Yes on the popup message to make the change. Please see tests run on Windows 7/MS Word 2010 below. Not allowing the height to be changed to 2.0 without changing the top/bottom margins to 0 seems to prevent the text being invisible. In MS Word, once you get the top/bottom margins to 0 and then change the height and line spacing to 2.0, the text is still visible (you cannot change the height to 2.0 without making the top/bottom margins 0). Preventing the user (by throwing errors/warning messages) from picking incorrect options which will cause issues like text not being visible seems to be a fair approach that is being used by MS Word. Tests run on Windows 7, MS Word 2010: 1. Create a new Word document. Change the page height (using menu option: Page Layout > Size). Change the height to 2.0. Click OK. You get a warning message "The top/bottom margins are too large for the page height in some sections". Word does not allow the page height to be changed to 2.0 till you make the top and bottom margins are set to 0. 2. Set the top and bottom margins to 0 using menu options: Page Layout > Margins > Custom Margins. Word warns the user that the margins are outside the printable area but still lets the user to set it to 0. 3. Go back to Page layout > Size and change the page height to 2.0. Word warns the user but lets the height be set to 2.0. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. You are the assignee for the bug.
