Description chenchiel 2016-08-23 07:49:24 UTC

When I set Text direction Right-to-left(vertical) mode for typesetting of Chinese, I found that the characters are shifted to left around half width of a character, especially for the last column of the paragraph, half of the characters are cut off and do not display any more. It seems something wrong to display in vertical typesetting mode, and also for underlines(seems become delete line but actually not). And also do not Export as PDF because the character will rotate 90 degrees but works if you choose print then save as PDF(the bookmarks for contents will missing if do like this).

Reproducible: Always

chenchiel : for those of us that do not generally type using RTL, can you please provide a sample document showing what you consider to be the buggy behaviour.

As for the export to PDF and rotation of the characters, I believe that this is already known, but it should be considered under a separate bug report. Please file a separate report for this.

Setting to NEEDINFO pending requested information. Please set back to UNCONFIRMED once you have provided a test file showing the problem of incorrect character spacing/alignment.
Comment 2 Alex Thurgood 2016-08-23 13:06:10 UTC
Please also check whether the behaviour you are experiencing is either that described in bug 85119, or bug 40335, in which case, this is a DUPLICATE of either one of those bug reports.
Comment 3 Alex Thurgood 2016-08-23 13:11:43 UTC
Please also provide your LO version nnumber.

Confirming on 

Version: 5.2.0.4
Build ID: 066b007f5ebcc236395c7d282ba488bca6720265
Threads CPU : 2; Version de l'OS :Mac OS X 10.11.6; UI Render : par défaut; 
Locale : fr-FR (fr.UTF-8)

The problem is, or so it seems to me, visible always in the sentence of a paragraph which wraps to an orphan end of sentence. The cursor/characters visibly show a positional change on the horizontal axis.
Comment 8 Alex Thurgood 2016-08-31 12:38:17 UTC
Tested against :

Version: 4.1.4.2
Build ID: 0a0440ccc0227ad9829de5f46be37cfb6edcf72

OSX 10.11.6

where the same problem seems even more acute and every character is affected.

The problem also seems to be present in 
LibreOffice 3.3.0 
OOO330m19 (Build:6)
tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4
Comment 9 Omer Zak 2017-11-14 09:52:51 UTC
I tested in:

Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha1+
Build ID: 9050854c35c389466923f0224a36572d36cd471a
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.9; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.utf8); Calc: group

OS: Debian 64bit Stretch (Debian 9.2, with some backported packages)


Now there seems to be a different bug:
1. There are lots of vertical lines which did not appear in http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=126991
2. Characters are cut off at the right side rather than left side.

Seems to be still present

Do you also have the issue in Linux now? Comment #10 seems to have the same problem

Still present

Also tested in Linux, but missing the fonts used here. It does still look weird (two columns are rendered above the page as on LO for macOS)

Comment 16 ⁨خالد حسني⁩ 2023-05-29 09:47:42 UTC
The macOS horizontal shift is long fixed, the current vertical shift is duplicate of bug 149297.

I can’t reproduce any issues on Linux.
