Description Olivier Hallot 2021-01-07 13:43:21 UTC
From the documentation mailing list

https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/2021/msg00024.html

This page https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/shared/01/05280000.html needs a correction.

Caption to the "Text Contour" is invalid, so mentions to Shadow options
are displaced. Horizontal and Vertical distance refer to "Vertical",
while distance and angle for "Slant" is absent.


task: Update Help page on fontwork: shared/01/05280000.xhp

I have added the angle and distance in slant.Referred horizontal and vertical distance under vertical.And rest changes. Kindly guide me if any mistake is there.

Thank you, Shubham! But:
the attached file doesn't contain icons for "Slant" options. Will they appear in the Help system?
Besides, there is another 'problem': Extended tips for these options (Angle and Measure) don't change in LibreOffice - they still offer to enter distances.
Should I report This as a separate bug?

Sir I'm unable to find this icon in LO version 6.2.8.2

Also,I didn't get your second point.Please explain.
It's my first contribution so i'm facing difficulty

I use version 7.0.5

> Also, I didn't get your second point. Please explain.
I mean, the behavior of extended tips (helping labels) for changeable options doesn't differ. Though it must differ...

I have just checked the help and the issue persists even in LO 7.2 help.

https://help.libreoffice.org/7.2/en-US/text/shared/01/05280000.html

I am changing this to NEW.

Screenshot slant shadow

Slant shadow works for me. Only the tooltip is not adapted when slant shadow is on.

Hello, all!
After one year since this bug was reported, I noticed those changes were gone "for good"  :)
What happened?
I can't find the text-along-the-curve feature. Besides, the Help system for this topic is outdated.
