--- Comment #3 from larrybradley <[email protected]> --- I reset the status to Unconfirmed. Definitely still an issue, depending on style choices applied. Specifically, If you apply a custom style to a portion of a sentence or paragraph (i.e., create an Inline Style) everything is fine as long as the Inline Style has the same attributes ad teh Default Text. Make the custom style bold, and you're still okay. But change the character style to Small Caps, for instance, and it blows up (distorts) the entire frame. Specifically, it wraps the text and makes the frame twice as large as it once was.They trying to resize the frame in any way that makes it look "right" is tedious and almost impossible. The only solution is to revert back to the state prior to invoking Small Caps. The "frame method" of creating inline styles is appreciated, and it works as long as Styles are kept simple, but it also has its drawbacks, including you really can't do much cut and paste or other changes once you have inserted a number of the inline style changes, without wrecking your document. For instance, you can't select the entire line or paragraph and move of copy it. MS Word's Style Separator also has its issues, but all in all it is less clumsy than the "frame" method. Also, I don't like having every frame inserted into the Navigator box; too busy and confusing (I don't know which unnamed frames are inline styles and which frames are 'real' frames. I don't know if Word's Style Separator is patented, copyrighted or trademark's, but that one seems to be a better solution than the frame solution recently implemented by TDF. Nice try...no, GOOD try, by no cigar. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
