Description koutei-r.gcj 2024-01-03 21:22:39 UTC
Description:

Whenever you use different font sizes in one line and enter Japanese characters, the size of the input preview is different from the size you actually selected.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Select 48 pt as your font size, enter any Japanese character, preferably a kanji.
2. Enter a space character and another Japanese character, select the latter and change its font size to 24 pt.
3. Try to enter another Japanese character after it.

Expected behaviour:

When entering Japanese characters, the preview when selecting your kanji/kana spelling as well as the output should be at 24 pt.

Actual behaviour: 

The input preview switches back to 48 pt, the output will be at 24 pt.

Reproducibility:

Always. In some documents that were created before the 7.4 update, the size of the preview changes in a different way (not necessarily the size of the first character in each line). Either way it’s never the selected size, occasionally happens in new lines as well.

User profile reset: No difference, tested it on a factory-fresh system as well.

OS: Windows 10/11; Linux Mint 21 64-bit
Last stable version: 7.3.7.2

Thank you for reporting the bug. It seems, you're using an old version of LO. Could you please retest with actual version 7.6 or 24.02? Thank you.

I already tested it with version 7.6 when I reported this and it still shows this behaviour. As I said, 7.3.7.2 is the last version where it doesn’t happen.

Sorry, I meant to write that I wasn't able to reproduce that behavior. My keyboard settings were off and I just caught it.
