Description Olav Dahlum 2011-05-04 18:58:08 UTC

The button for writing vertical text in the drawing bar is not shown, even if it's present and selected for viewing. This bug can be easily noticed by the quick displacement of buttons when starting Writer or other components with the drawing bar enabled. Also selecting and deselecting the button will reveal this bug.

NOT reproducible with "LibreOffice 3.4Beta3  – WIN7  Home Premium  (64bit) German UI [DEV300m103 (Build:3)]". May be user error?

@Olav:
Did you check whether you have checked "Enabled for Asian languages" in menu 'Tools > Options > Language settings > Languages - Language settings'? 
If that does not help, please contribute complete information due to

Closing Bug due to reporter's inactivity.

@reporter:
Please feel free to reopen this bug if you find out that the problem still exists with the current stable LibreOffice version and if you can contribute requested additional information due to <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport> (especially BugReport Details)!

If it's really intended for that use, why does it show as an option in toolbars for other languages? I was reporting this on behalf of another users, so we should probably fix this confusion?

@Olav Dahlum
Please keep in mind tht some users might frequently switch on/off Asian languages / CTL. How should we handle restrictions for buttons in toolbars? Can you contribute a perfect concept?

No, sorry. I can just make general suggestions, like the bar checking whether this settings are in use or not.

For LO 5.2.1.2 lastest -Windows 10 - it is impossible to add the vertical text button to the standar bar. It appears as an add-able button in the "visible buttons" contextual menu, but the bar simply flickers when you "enable" said button

That's because you didn't enable support for Asian languages (under Tools > Options... > Language settings > Languages).
