--- Comment #18 from Justin L <[email protected]> --- The problem is that SwTextBoxHelper::doTextBoxPositioning does not just copy the absolute position of the laid-out frame, but it re-calculates everything (using very simplistic formulas). Why it would think it needs to do this I don't know. For comment 7's example, the textbox is set to move 6cm to the right of the start of A1. Because it is limited to layoutInCell, the frame is laid out at the right edge of the cell. However, the simplistic textbox doesn't take cell edge into account, and simply applies the specified 6cm. To try to duplicate all of the complex layout calculations into this function is sheer madness. A complete redesign of sync'd textbox positioning is necessary. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
