Bug ID: 164777
Summary: Frames and tables clipping italics
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I don't know how recent this bug is. I just noticed it happening throughout the
document I am working on a few days ago. I said it affects 24.8.3.2, but I am
actually using 24.8.4.1.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a frame or table with no padding.
2. Type some lower case f's or j's in the table cell or frame.
3. Apply italics to the text. Use a large font to better see the effect.
4. Use left or right alignment and size the table/frame such that the letters
inside are right against the edge of the table/frame.
Actual Results:
the bottom of the leftmost j and the top of the rightmost f are clipped and not
visible.
Expected Results:
The full letters should be visible.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
There is something truly bizarre going on. In the document I am attaching you
can see 3 frames. In the top one everything is clipped. In the second one, I
have typed additional f's on the first line and that has cause the j on the
bottom line to become magically unclipped.
Now, if you put your cursor in the middle of the f line and type anything,
nothing will improve. However, if you go to the end of the line and type
anything then the bottom tail of the f at the beginning of the line will
appear!! (Even this didn't work for me at one point until I re-opened the
document.) (It may not completely appear until you force a re-paint of the
screen by scrolling away or minimizing the document.) Nothing I have tried
prevents the top of the f from clipping on the right side.
Fortunately in PDF exports the clipping does not occur.
