Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 104618
In a Rectangle Text/"Adjust to contour" disables "Spacing to borders"
Last modified: 2009-10-22 09:22:30 UTC
I'd like text to wrap in a Rectangle, but there seems to be a default gap of 1 pixel to the edge, which looks too tight at high zoom, and is actually touching at lower zoom. I get a completely different result if I create a Text box and then apply the Default style; the Text automatically wraps with a fixed border, and it disables both Adjust to contour and "Spacing to borders". From the user's perspective, both Rectangle and Text can yield a similar result depending on styles, so it's confusing and inflexible that they behave so differently and with different limitations. I suggest that the most flexible way to represent both Text and Rectangle would be as a Text component within a Rectangle, where the Text component may always be indented using "Spacing to borders". (hopefully this has no impact on the document format; naturally that would make require a clever extension to ensure that existing documents render the same as today)
Please attach a document where the problem is visible.
