A few of points:

We discussed both kinds of fitting - height and width - in the session, hence
Heiko's quote referring also to width adjustment/fitting.


> Resizing works, if not set manually ... but the box is still never shrunk,
> only stretched. 

... so, not exactly. We actually noticed, if the user set an original box
height, then let the stretch happen, then removed some text - the box is
shrunk, up to the height originally set. There's a hidden state aspect to the
current behavior.

Also wanted to clarify this part:

> The feature needs to be ODF compliant.

So, we need to have a look at the ODF spec and check:

1. Whether these toggles are explicitly defined.
2. Whether their exact semantics is defined to be what LO does now, e.g.
remembering the user-set width.


> MSO ... "Resize shape" switches off automatically when the height 
> changes... We should follow MS example and enable/disable the toggles
> depending on the state.

1. We did not discuss that possibility at the design meeting.
2. I'm not at all sure this is a good idea about height. But about width -
definitely not.

> Renaming makes sense too.

So, bottom line, the immediate task is to rename. We didn't bikeshed the exact
string. "Stretch height to fit text" is my current favorite.

We discussed the topic in the design meeting.

Resizing works, if not set manually but the box is still never shrunk, only
stretched. Ideally this toggle would make the box both stretch and shrink as
necessary.

MSO uses "[ ] Resize shape to fit text" and "[ ] Wrap text in shape"
+ "Resize shape" switches off automatically when the height changes
+ if "Wrap text" is switched off, the box is sized according the
  page width (and text still breaks)
+ if the box is resized from the page width, the "Wrap text" option
  is switched on automatically

The feature needs to be ODF compliant. We should follow MS example and
enable/disable the toggles depending on the state. Renaming makes sense too.

But "Fit width to text" acts differently! It _does_ shrink to fit, it doesn't
just extend. The current situation is misleading, suggesting symmetry of the
semantics regarding the vertical and horizontal axes.

The label is easy to understand and we should not change it unless we do the
same with "Fit width to text" and have good reasons to do. I'd prefer the
enhancement (and accept a minor misleading text).

Changing the functionality is definitely a possibility, but it would be a
different bug. If you think someone is going to implement that right away, then
ok, otherwise - let's fix the label to say what it does, then if the
functionality changes, we can change the label back.

I'd rather make it equivalent to the width function and also shrink the text
box height.

Seeing this with:

Version: 7.6.0.3 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 69edd8b8ebc41d00b4de3915dc82f8f0fc3b6265
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-IL (en_IL); UI: en-US

but it goes way back.
