Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 72613
Inaccurate display of emphasis and small caps
Last modified: 2013-02-07 21:59:41 UTC
Select some text > Format > Character > Fontworks Choose : Emphasis > Circles (above) and Effect > Small caps In the Format Character dialogue, the circles display incorrectly above the text in small caps. There are two rows of circles, instead of one, and they are not complete rows. This only occurs in the dialogue: the effect is correct when applied to the document. AFAIK this only occurs with this combination of effects. There are a lot of possible permutations. However, it doesn't occur when any of the other Effect items are combined with Circle emphasis. See the attached screenshot.

Note: on further testing, I find that ALL emphasis choices show this error when combined with small caps.
clytie: good time to know what other compoents are there in IZ ;-))
Looks good on Windows and Solaris. Seems to be a problem of the Port.
change subcomponent
Hi clythie, *, could you check this with a newer version of OOo? I can not reproduce this issue, as I have no Vietnamese version installed here, sorry ... :( So my comment is only a reminder to the people who are concerned ... ;) Thomas.
Hello again Clytie, *, you have not answered my question from last November until now ... :( Could you be so kind to answer it? Or close this issue, if it does not occur any longer? TIA Thomas.
Sorry, Thomas, I was away over two long periods, and I evidently missed your other email when I returned from the first absence last year. I just checked this feature in OpenOffice.org 3.0 (DEV300_m21) Vietnamese, and the emphasis option doesn't seem to exist anymore. (I know this isn't the latest build, but I haven't been able to download a later one yet.) Is Emphasis still available in builds for other platforms/languages under Format > Character > Fontworks ? I'll attach a screenshot of the Fontworks dialogue in DEV300_m21 Vietnamese. It lists (LHS) Underscore, Strikethrough, Font Colour; (Centre, greyed out) Colour, Separate words; (RHS) Effect, Relief, Outline, Shadow, Blink, Hidden. I don't know where Emphasis has gone.

Hello clytie, *, as I still have not the possibility (as well as the knowledge to recognise any errror seen) to test a newer Vietnamese version of OOo, if possible, please? Is this issue fixed in the meantime or is it still valid? If it is fixed, it would be nice, if you or someone else can close this issue ... ;) TIA Thomas.
Hello clythie, *, sorry, forgot to answer your question last time ... :( You are right. There is no entry for Fontworks any more. On my Germanophone version of OOo 3.1.1RC2 under Debian SID AMD64 the option for emphases is on the "Font Effect" tab (roughly translated ... I am not sure, how it is called in English ... :( ). There it is in the middle row, just above the preview window. As I cannot read Vietnamese, I am not sure, where it is in your build ... :( But maybe you could try a newer build of OOo to see, if it is there again ... ;) Have fun Thomas.
Hello clytie, *, and - again - another reminder: Would you be so kind to test it again with OOO320m17, please? Has anything changed in the meantime? If this issue fixed? Would you be so kind to answer this message, please? After two unanswered comments from August 2009, it would be really nice ... ;) Thomas.
