Bug ID: 163097
Summary: FILEOPEN: footnote positioning options unavailable
after DOC/DOCX import
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
If a Writer document has at any point been imported from DOC or DOCX then the
following options (all related to size and positioning) are no longer available
to control from the Footnote Page Style options UI.
Further, these options are not honoured in the rendering of documents on
affected versions if their settings have been restored and re-saved by an
unaffected version.
* Space to text
* Position
* Length
* Spacing to footnote contents
The missing options are not restored if the document is re-saved and reloaded
as ODF and are not available for new Page Styles either.
This appears to be a regression since 7.0.4 as all the affected options are
available in 7.0.4 when an affected document is opened and the features are
rendered correctly. Documents saved by later versions retain the setting for
these options and continue to render correctly in 7.0.4.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save a new, empty document in both ODF and DOCX formats.
2. Close the document.
3. Open the ODF document and DOCX documents.
Actual Results:
The relevant options will be available in the opened ODF documents.
The relevant options will not be available in the opened DOCX documents.
Expected Results:
The relevant options will be available in the opened DOCX document.
The relevant options will be available in the opened ODF document.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
