Bug ID: 108273
Summary: FORMATING: Tabstops behave strange when paragraph is
right or middle aligned
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.4.0.0.beta1+
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Tabstops doesn't follow the visual marks of the document rulers if paragraph is
anything else than aligned to left.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. write a line or text and put somewhere a tab
2. click on the document rule above to set a left tabstop
3. align the line/paragraph right
Actual Results:
Right align paragraph somehow also mirrors the tabstop
so for example: left tabstop is at 2 cm ; and page boarder is at 17 cm
=> the tabbed text will end at 15 cm
so right align is turning the left tabstop to a right one using the right
boarder.
That's confusing and anything else than easy to handle or work with.
Expected Results:
also on the right align paragraph the tabstop should work as shown on the
document rules and place the tabbed word at 2 cm(from the left boarder)
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Tested Microsoft Word 2013 and Wordpad of window 7 and both showing the same
behavior.
But Libre Office should do it better that.
Fix proposal #1:
Tapstops on right/middle aligned paragraphs should be rendered differently.
Fix proposal #2:
In case that is a kind of weird standard word processing software should follow
at least the document ruler should also follow it visually.
=> Now the tabstops at the ruler just stay were they are pointing to 'wrong'
locations(if you're not smart enough for the weird logic behind scene) and so
violating the WYSIWYG principle.
