             Bug #: 50547
           Summary: EDITING: Flipped text is not displayed correctly.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.2 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

Presentation (one slide) that illustrates the incorrect flipping of text in a
square.  Also illustrated is incorrect flipping of rotated shapes containing
text: the text sometimes falls outside the shape after the flip operation.

Problem description: 
(This problem is related to, but different from, bug 50435.)
When a shape containing text is flipped horizontally or vertically, the effect
on the text is not correct.

Steps to reproduce:
1. In a new presentation, select a shape and draw it on the slide.
2. With the shape selected, click on the Text tool and enter some text into the
shape.
3. Select the shape containing the text, then choose Flip > Horizontal from the
right-mouse menu.  The text will remain unchanged: ordinary letters reading
left-to-right.
4. With the shape selected, choose Flip > Vertical from the right-mouse menu. 
The text will be rotated 180 degrees (ordinary letters that read left-to-right
if you stand on your head).

Current behavior:
Text that is flipped horizontally or vertically is not correct.  The letters
are not mirrored.

Expected behavior:
Flipping text horizontally should cause each letter to be reversed
left-to-right, and those reversed letters should be printed right-to-left. 
Flipping text vertically should cause each letter to be inverted top-to-bottom,
and those inverted letters should be printed left-to-right.  In either case the
letters should be mirror-images of ordinary printed letters.

Platform (if different from the browser): 
MS Windows 7 Pro, v6.1.7601 SP1, on Dell Inspiron 620 (Core i5-2320).  Built-in
Intel HD graphics.              

Browser: Chrome/19.0.1084.46
