Description:
Improve multicolumn text behavior while typing inside Draw shapes
After great Mike's work
(https://mikekaganski.wordpress.com/2021/06/15/multiple-columns-in-libreoffice-text-boxes/)
we have opportunity write text in to several column inside Impress slides and
inside Draw shapes.
But text typing process isn't the same for Impress text blocks and for Draw
shapes.
Let's set 2 columns for text blocks and Draw shapes using Sidebar:
1. In Impress text blocks the text cursor stays in first column while text will
fills all vertical area and only after it the text cursor will move to second
column. Inside Draw shapes the text cursor jumps from first column to second
after Enter key or after end of the first row in the column.
2. In Impress text blocks the typed text doesn't jump anyway after ending of
the editing (when you click out of the text bock). Inside Draw shapes the typed
text jumps to first column even while typing it was in several columns.
I suggest improve that strange behavior inside Draw shape and make it the same
as it is inside Impress text blocks.
Mike said the root of the problem is the text area inside Draw shapes has just
zero height by creating.
Steps to Reproduce:
-
Actual Results:
Multicolumn text behavior while typing inside Draw shapes is strange and isn't
the same as inside Impress's text blocks
Expected Results:
Multicolumn text behavior while typing inside Draw shapes is good and it is the
same as inside Impress's text blocks
Reproducible: Always
