RGB <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|FIXED |--- Status|RESOLVED |REOPENED --- Comment #25 from RGB <[email protected]> --- I'm reopening this issue to discuss the viability of the recently implemented solution: 1- As shown in Bug 163650, the use of frames to simulate inline headings creates problems when those headings are numbered. Because every single example I've ever came across for "inline headings" uses numbering, this issue alone renders the proposed solution invalid. 2- Specially when using multi-column layout, a normal heading could easily take more than one line, breaking the text flow and making the proposed solution non functional (the frame will take the whole paragraph width, pushing the following text to the next line and breaking the "inline" feature). 3- The proposed solution is not a proper one, but a workaround. The only way to achieve a proper solution would be a change in how Writer processes paragraphs, allowing a paragraph break without a line break (LaTeX does exactly that). I know that ODF does not, at the moment, allows the implementation of a proper solution, but workarounds should not be presented as proper solutions, even if there are no proper solutions in sight, because workarounds *always* break. And as discussed above, this particular workaround breaks quite easily. For that reason I ask the developers to consider retracting the patch. Workarounds (there are more than one for this issue) could be packaged as extensions. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
