Description xordevoreaux 2019-07-10 04:25:40 UTC
Description:
Converting text to contour, polygon, or curve has a default border/line thickness of black, even when the border is set to none.
See bug #126097

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Draw
2. Create text. Make it pink or something other than black.
3. Keep the text's border to none.
4. Convert the text to a contour, polygon, or curve (doesn't matter which)
5. Export to any format (JPG, PNG, TIFF)

Actual Results:
Black border appears around the converted text despite a different border color/thickness.

Expected Results:
The export should adopt the border properties of the converted text, not default to black (or even appear if the border is set to none).


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Do you have OpenGL enabled? You find the setting in Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View. If OpenGL is enabled, disable it and restart LibreOffice. Then try again.

I do not have OpenGL enabled.  I never use it.
Comment 3 xordevoreaux 2019-07-11 00:02:53 UTC
My apologies, yes it was enabled. Does that get reset between versions? I never use it.  One sec and I'll retest.
Comment 4 xordevoreaux 2019-07-11 00:06:17 UTC
Works after I took off OpenGL. Thanks.
Comment 5 Regina Henschel 2019-07-11 10:29:55 UTC
I see the wrong output with enabled OpenGL too.

Disabling OpenGL is an option for the reporter. But it is still an error with OpenGL.

I'm now using 7.0.0.0 Beta 2 and I don't even see where using OpenGL is even an option. I'm currently using hardware acceleration (Skia was slow and clunky) and with this particular setup I'm no longer seeing the problem with border colors as originally described.

As Skia with Vulkan will replace OpenGL UI rendering on all platforms, it does not make sense to keep OpenGL UI reports open.
