Description Don Matschull 2023-06-06 21:45:31 UTC
When I open the Dimension line dialog, AutoVertical and AutoHorizontal are selected. A dot appears in the center of the Text position box, but the sample view at the bottom of the dialog shows the text above the dimension line. I cannot select any of the other positions in the Text position box.

If I deselect AutoVertical and AutoHorizontal, and click the top center dot in the Text position box, the center dot remains selected. However, in the sample view at the bottom of the dialog, the text has moved to the center of the dimension line. I cannot move this by clicking on any of the other dots in the Text position area.

I’ll now click OK to close the dialog.

If I now reopen the dialog, AutoVertical and AutoHorizontal are selected. The dot is in the center position in the Text position area. The text is in the center of the dimension line in the sample view at the bottom of the dialog. I can now click on the various dots in the Text position box and the text moves as expected.

The question is: Why does it not behave this way in the first place?

I confirm the problem exists in Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha1+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 70fd835b4cf75e386ee115c705241a4059fb68a8
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: default; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US
Calc: CL threaded.

I know that the problem exists in older versions, but I have currently no time to look for the oldest one.

I could not find an existing bug report.
