Bug ID: 154756
Summary: Vertical text direction results in rotation, not
vertical text direction
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In vertical text direction, glyphs are oriented the same way as they are in
horizontal text direction, but for placing the next glyph, we move up or down
on the page rather than left or right.
If, instead, we reorient the glyphs by 90 (or 270) degrees, and then progress
right or left according to the glyphs' rotated coordinate system - those are
rotated paragraphs, _not_ vertical text direction. In vertical text direction,
we should see something like
H
E
L
L
O
instead of
HELLO
in horizontal. Again, the glyphs are _not_ themselves rotated/reoriented. An
attachment will further exemplify this.
Interestingly, the Page Style dialog, when presenting a mini-preview of the
page, does indeed show
A
B
C
↓
as expected, with no reorientation - but it's not what gets laid out.
