--- Comment #19 from Regina Henschel <rb.hensc...@t-online.de> --- Created attachment 188023 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=188023&action=edit Writing mode description in ODF 1.4 I think, we have (at least) two problems here. So the issue should be divided into two reports. (A) The example window in the dialog does not show the essential property of the text direction. The example shown there is not a fixed image but generated content depending on the settings of the page style. The text shown in the example is generated in https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/svx/source/dialog/pagectrl.cxx?r=444bf871#222 It might already help to add an east Asian glyph to the "ABC" text, "ABC本" for example. It needs to be something, which allows to see the direction in small font size. (And of cause which has a neutral meaning.) BTW, the text direction setting in frame styles in Writer have no example at all but only the text description. (B) "Stacked" writing modes are missing. Vertical without character rotation is currently only available as character property or for table cell styles in ODF. Implementing a "stacked" writing mode requires an extension to the file format. A "stacked" writing mode would be of most interest for shapes and frames. I don't think that a "stacked" writing mode is useful for pages. The attached document contains the description of the writing modes in ODF 1.4. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
