            Bug ID: 148128
           Summary: This is not a bug per se, but an enhancement for the
                    horizontal and vertical rulers
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.3.1.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
I often design notices and postings. While the horizontal and vertical rulers
are helpful, they can be enhanced by adding a centering marker for the page.
This would also assist persons who design brochures, as it will give them an
idea of how the document will look when fully prepared without the need to
resort to making tables, which can be problematic while adjusting to get the
right size for inserting text. 

Adding a center marker is a simple matter of calculating the difference between
minimum and maximum values and dividing by 2. If you guys wanted to really be
creative, you could add a field to place the marker at a specific location on
the page in local (user chosen) units. An additional enhancement for those of
us who design documents which are location specific would be to place a phantom
line across the page at the marker locations (both horizontal and vertical.

This feature would even assist users who do use table insertion as a means of
entering location formatted text because the page can be more easily profiled
where center lines are required. 

Actual Results:
Select "Rulers" from View menu.

Expected Results:
That there would be a way to select center lines for the page.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Have an option for locating and marking center lines for the page.
