Bug ID: 168690
Summary: Wrong underline color when overlapping different types
of underline
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.2.6.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
With direct formatting, when two different types of underline (e.g. single,
double, bold, dotted, dash, etc.) overlap, the second underline will not use
the same color as the text.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Writer in safe mode
2. Create a new document
3. Increase the font size (to make the color difference more obvious)
4. Write some text (e.g. "This is a test")
5. Select the first word (e.g. "This") and underline it with a single underline
(e.g. Ctrl+U)
6. Select some text overlapping with the first word
* For instance, select its last letter and the next two words (e.g. "s is
a")
7. Underline the selection in `Bold`
* i.e. click on the `Underline` icon drop-down button and select `Bold` in
the menu
Actual Results:
The bold underline appears with a different color (in my case blue, but
sometimes it's also green) than the text (in my case black, since this is the
default color)
Expected Results:
The bold underlining should be the same color as the text
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
I found a workaround : when underlining the overlapping text, if I first
underline it with a single underline and then underline it with the other type
of underline, then the color remains the same as the text.
To be noted that the bug also occurs when the two underlines are the same type,
unless the first underline is a single one (e.g. in the procedure, underline
both times in bold and the bug still occurs).
