Description jose.velez 2020-03-28 08:51:58 UTC
Description:
Allow overlap does not work when vertical position is set to "Bottom" respect to "Page text area".

This is a very common configuration because, in a formal text like a book, figures must be at the bottom of the pages instead of in the middle of the pages.

Steps to Reproduce:
1 - Create a text that fulfill two pages with the same paragraph.
2 - Insert two images, both anchored to the first paragraph (or to the first letter of the first page).
3 - Set vertical position for both figures as "bottom" respect "page text area"
4 - For both figures, set "None" in Wrap settings and uncheck "Allow overlap"

Actual Results:
Result: The figures remain overlapped.

Expected Results:
Result: The figures does not overlap.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
It does not work either with any warp configurations.
Also, It does not work with "top" and "Page text area".

I've tried to reproduce it and LO crashed

1 - Create a text that fulfill two pages with the same paragraph.
2 - Insert two images, both anchored to the first paragraph (or to the first letter of the first page).
3 - Set vertical position for both figures as "bottom" respect "page text area"
4 - For first image uncheck "Allow overlap"
5 - For first image set "None" in Wrap

LO crashes

Yes. When following theses steps, sometimes LO crashes, but not always.

I've reported this with bug 131729. Would be nice, if you can confirm it. Thanks.
Comment 5 Dieter 2020-04-01 06:50:56 UTC
I've tried again (this time without a crash), but couldn't reproduce. Images doesn't overlap text.
Comment 6 jose.velez 2020-04-01 07:19:33 UTC
The problem is that images overlap between them. 

This is a new feature of LO 6.4 (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/6.4#Writer, https://vmiklos.hu/blog/sw-shape-allow-overlap.html)

The images do not overlap the text, but the images overlap between them. And this is contrary to the new feature.

You can see it in the screenshot attached to this bug page.

Thanks for that information. But when I just have to overlapping shapes in a document (like in the video) and disable "Allow overlap" nothing happens. So problem is perhaps much broader?

But with your explanation I confirm the bug report

The figure continues overlapping in 7.3 releases.
