Description Ming Hua 2020-10-30 18:46:46 UTC
First, thanks for the style inspector feature!  It looks like a very useful tool for advanced users.

Description:
Most LibreOffice styles offer three separate font choices, for western text, Asian text (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean), and complex layout text.

It seems that the new style inspector, introduced in 7.1, only supports western text and complext layout text, but ignores Asian text.

Steps to produce:
1. Make sure "Asian" checkbox is selected in Tools > Options > Language Settings > Languages > Default Languages for Documents;
2. Open style inspector sidebar for a new blank document in Writer, expand the "Default Paragraph Style" tree;
3. Observe that properties like "Char Font Char Set" and "Char Font Name" are displayed for the western text, "Char Font Char Set Complex" and "Char Font Name Complex" etc. are displayed for complex layout text, but nothing for Asian text.

My LO version is 7.1.0 alpha1:
Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha1 (x64)

CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18363; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: zh-CN (zh_CN); UI: en-US

P.S.: It may be also worth discussion to not show / gray out Asian text and complex layout text related properties when they are disabled.  I can file a new bug for this if necessary.

CJK and CTL are hidden, see https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/97530 meanwhile move to InspectorTextPanel.cxx GetPropertyValues().

To my understanding CJK/CTL should be hidden unless enabled in Tools > Options.

No need for UX input.

Well at least it doesn't match what I experienced, see attached screenshot.

CJK is enabled in Tools > Options > Language Settings > Languages, CTL is disabled.  Style Inspector shows "... Complex" properties, not "... Asian" ones.
Comment 3 Ming Hua 2020-11-01 11:58:52 UTC
Fun...

When I enable both CJK and CTL text in Tools > Options, I see *neither* "... Asian" *or* "... Complex" properties.  And when I disable both CJK and CTL, I can see those properties in style inspectors.

The code that control whether to hide them seems to have the logic reversed, at least on Windows.

I confirm this bug
The issue is in

    // Hide Asian and Complex properties
if (SvtLanguageOptions().IsCJKFontEnabled() && rPropName.indexOf("Asian") != -1)
          return false;
if (SvtLanguageOptions().IsCTLFontEnabled() && rPropName.indexOf("Complex") != -1)
          return false;

defined in /sidebar/inspector/InspectorTextPanel.cxx?r=4fbd6386#65.

The code means "if CJKFont is enabled and rPropName is related to Asian return false", this should rather be

    // Hide Asian and Complex properties
if (rPropName.indexOf("Asian") != -1 && !SvtLanguageOptions().IsCJKFontEnabled())
          return false;
if (rPropName.indexOf("Complex") != -1 && SvtLanguageOptions().IsCTLFontEnabled())
          return false;

"if CJKFont is *not* enabled and rPropName is related to Asian return false"

I cannot see how we missed this issue. @Heiko Should I work on this?

I missed the *not* operator ;-)

just for information from Tomoyuki Kubota

I've written the exactl patch (even before assigning to myself),
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/105054
but a unit test failed

considering that the time I can spare is limited, I don't mind your assigning to  yourself and start writing code:) In that case, I will just abandon my code.

FWIW, himajin100000 came to the same conclusion and has already submitted a patch:

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/105054

It's stuck at a failed UI test right now.

I'm not a programmer and can't help much, so just passing this information along, so that you guys can work together and avoid duplicate work.

It has been pushed to "master":

https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/73e0b664881d95510be9605b98a2671926f4697a

tdf#137886 condition for asian and ctl property seems wrong

It will be available in 7.1.0.

The patch should be included in the daily builds available at
https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More

Thank you himajin100000 for the fix!

BTW do you plan to work more on this bug or did you just forget to close it?

um, after my initial patch, Xisco Fauli fixed the unit test issue. It was helpful.

but acutually, I'm not yet sure about what is included in the 118 properties, and 136 properties, and that unsureness in just being a small hurdle for me to close this bug myself.

Nine months has passed and no complaints so far.  Let's mark this as FIXED.

Why did you change this? The specific problem was the reversed condition, that was implemented earlier [1] ; this bug was about that. Your comment 15 targets Heiko's words that were exclusively in frame of this bug, and as such, were completely correct.

Above all, I even gave you the complete picture in the bug 150406 comment 6, and it was clear there *where* had the proposal appeared (not in any bug, but in a discussion of a gerrit change during implementation of the feature).

You should create a new bug for this issue that you raise.
