Bug ID: 160320
Summary: Restrict Web View Document Width
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.0.3 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
The current appearance of LibreOffice Writer's Web View fits the text to the
edges of the viewing window.
This is, in my opinion, not very visually appealing. Google Doc's Pageless mode
— and, if I remember correctly, Microsoft Word — have a solution to this
problem. Constrict the text to the page width, (centred, of course).
Tables and similar components may still surpass this restriction when
necessary.
I believe that this feature change would greatly increase appeal to Web View
mode, and for those who disagree, there can remain a toggle in the settings to
bring back the old behaviour.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open or create a new document.
2. Click View > Web.
3. Observe result.
Actual Results:
Text is fitted to the sides of the viewing window.
Expected Results:
Text is constrained to page width, similarly to Google Docs Pageless mode.
Or, alternatively, this behaviour could be found through a setting somewhere.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
