Description: A text box behaves unexpectedly if its 'fit height to text' attribute is turned off. As excess text is typed the box appears to expand as though 'fit height' was still enabled. However, if one clicks elsewhere and then clicks back in the text box the size returns to its original and the excess text left 'hanging' below the box itself. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a small text box 2. Use <Format><Text Box and Shape><Text Attributes> to remove tick from 'Fit height to text' 3. Type sufficient lines of text into the box to overfill the box (it will expand!) 4. Move cursor out of text box and click then click back into the text box Actual Results: Excess text is left hanging below the text box, still attached to the box but not in it Expected Results: I expected the same results as if I had used a frame with 'Autosize' disabled instead of a text box. In such a frame the excess text does not expand the frame but an arrow shows to indicate there is such text. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Screenshot available 7.0.0.3 8061b3e9204bef6b321a21033174034a5e2ea88e
I agree, that it is a bug => NEW And I also agree about the expected result. But perhaps there are also different expectations => cc: Design-Team for further input
Created attachment 164650 [details] Example file
Also found in 3.3.0 And agreeing OP (comment 0) and comment 1
Two agreeing with the OP (clearly a bug IMHO when a setting is not applied immediately but seems so), no need to ask for UX input.
Dear DaveApp, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-UntouchedBug
Still present in Version: 7.4.0.3 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: f85e47c08ddd19c015c0114a68350214f7066f5a CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB Calc: CL
I can confirm that this bug is still present in 7.4.1.2. The text box behaves as expected apart from the overflowed text hanging below it. The overflowed text is attached to the text box & can be moved around with the box.
