Bug ID: 156681
Summary: The underline line in Writer doesn't match the length
of the sentence, even in simple cases.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.5.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Many underlining bugs have been reported, I've read them but I don't know
exactly if my bug is new or known.
I use both Windows 10 and 11, LibreOffice Writer, english language, font Times
New Roman 12 (but it happens with other fonts), character spacing 0.0 pt (the
default), line spacing 1 (the default), and I always save the documents as
docx.
I open Writer (font Times New Roman 12), I press the underline button "U" and I
write a long sentence, e.g:
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
which of course appears underlined, but in this case the line is two characters
longer than the text.
Depending on the font and what I write, the line is longer or shorter than the
text. Occasionally it has the same length.
But if I save the document as .docx and I open it with Word, the underline
lines always look perfect.
I would like to attach a picture of the screen, I don't know if it's possible.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. I use both Windows 10 and 11, LibreOffice Writer, english language, font
Times New Roman 12 (but it happens with other fonts), character spacing 0.0 pt
(the default), line spacing 1 (the default), and I always save the documents as
docx.
2. I open Writer (font Times New Roman 12)
3. I press the underline button "U" and I write a long sentence, e.g:
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
which of course appears underlined, but in this case the line is two characters
longer than the text.
Actual Results:
The underline line is two characters longer than the text.
Expected Results:
The underline line should match the length of the text.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
It happens with other fonts and sentences that I write, but then the line can
be longer, shorter, or occasionally the same length.
