Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 15991
incorrect tooltip display for RTL footnotes
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:00:39 UTC
When hovering over a refrence to a footnote, there is a tooltip with the footnote contents. This tooltip is always LTR, even when the footnote is RTL, leading to incorrect display of the tooltip.
Created attachment 7093 [details] sample word xp file, with 3 rtl footnotes
Created attachment 7094 [details] example 1: compae the tooltip to the actaul note
Created attachment 7095 [details] example 2: compare the tooltip to the actaul note
works fine in 1.1rc->worksforme
closing issue. please reopen if problem still occurs in current rc.
Tested with rc2- the tooltip is still LTR. Notice that the period is at the RIGHT most end of the tooltip, while it should be at the LEFT.
Hm, I checked and saw differences in the ebhaviour between 1.1Beta2 and 1.1RC1 (with which Christian tested before he closed before), but I do not want to decide "right or wrong" (because absolutely no knowledge in hebrew). I see in Comments From Shoshannah Forbes 2003-07-28 07:56 PDT that you are not satisified. Rainer
Created attachment 8078 [details] screen shot with current rc- notice the location of the period in the tooltip vs. the actaul note
it has indeed improved, but it is still broken. see the screen shot I attached.
I overlooked that. Confirming, setting target-milestone, OS->All (I'm using linux) Punctuation in the tooltip is wrong. (see scrennshot) (PS: Please don't attach screenshots as gifs. These don't compress well and still look "bad". PNG does a much better job :-)
DL->OS: Could you please takeover?
.
os->ssa: We simply put the paragraph's text into a string, let it start with "Footnote: " and call Help::ShowQuickHelp()
Must be a CTL problem, please have a look.
Accepted.
HDU->OS: Currently the help text is only a string. To make this string look like in the document I need the paragraph's default direction too. Else it defaults to LTR direction which causes problems with BiDi-neutral unicodes such as the dot. Since we need to do incompatible changes to add the default text direction to a help window we need a common CWS. Which one do you suggest?
os->hdu: If it can be implemented within the next week or so we should use os21, it's on so-cwsserv02, (Linux product, Windows nonpro)
HDU->OS: For help windows I added the nStyle bit "QUICKHELP_BIDI_RTL". See vcl/inc/help.hxx. Putting it in nStyle is done to keep the CWS os21 binary compatible because its PP1 status. Set this bit when the help text needs to have a RTL paragraph default direction.
