Priority: medium
Bug ID: 57956
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: FORMATTING: Regression: text width scaling broken in
impress and draw
Severity: major
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 3.6.4.3 rc
Component: Presentation
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
Making drawings or presentation, it is often convenient to be able to adjust
(scale) the character width (e.g. to make a word or a sentence look better
inside a box, etc. Openoffice and Libreoffice have a function for this under
the character formatting menu.
Unfortunately, in recent LibO this does not work anymore (in the preview the
text is scaled, but in the final display it is not).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open LibO draw or presentation
2. Create a text box, write something into it
3. Select the text
4. Select Format -> Character -> Position
5. Set a scaling different from 100% for the character width
(here you see the preview text getting larger for scales above 100% and
tight for scales less than 100%)
6. Press OK... and see that nothing actually changes!
Current behavior:
Text width gets scaled only in the preview, when you press OK to apply the
formatting to the text in a text box, the text stays the same regardless of the
text width scaling factor
Expected behavior:
The formatted text should increase or decrease its horizontal scale depending
on the scaling factor being selected.
Notes:
1) This is certainly a regression
2) This breaks the formatting of previously prepared documents and particularly
of presentations (due to the fact that I am using text scaling in a template,
almost all my presentations and lectures are broken and cannot be played
properly).
3) AOO is OK on this.
