Description

The settings "Left Align", "Center", "Right Align" and "Word justify" in the drop-down "Fontwork Alignment" are bound to the "Anchor" setting in the 'Text Attributes' dialog. Thereby only the vertical middle options are supported (at least for horizontal writing mode, don't now for top-bottom writing mode). When you set the anchor to the option "middle right" in the 'Text Attributes', then the "Fontwork Alignment" will be "Right Align" and vis-a-vis. The option "Center" belongs to option "middle/center disabled 'Full width" and the option "Word justify" belongs to option "middle/center with checked 'Full width'". "Word justify" rendering is broken, see bug 37808. Therefore I'm not sure whether "align" is the correct term at all. Created attachment 175681 [details]
Toolbar in question
In fact you can align the text right/left/center or stretch it (only per click on the icon not the label in kf5, v7.2). The base point in the Position & Size dialog has no effect and actually is not accepted at all.
The topic was on the agenda of the design meeting but didn't receive further input. Bug 145092 suggests to remove Word Justify. And whether "Align Left" or "Left Align" makes not much difference but saves the l10n team some time. So we should do it. svx/uiconfig/ui/fontworkalignmentcontrol.ui I pushed a fix to gerrit, please review it :-) https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/127540 Jeff Huang committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/8578add8775a258c79bd32f52a704ab2173bea47 tdf#144190 Change _Left Align and _Right Align to Align _Left and Align _Right It will be available in 7.4.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback. |
