Description Radish 2024-09-21 12:52:59 UTC
Description:
What happens is that when manually typing in text in Writer that is set to be 'justified' at the point where you are half-way along the line [of text you are typing] the justification steps in and resizes the line of text with every space character entered. Text jumping around in line length in a very disorientating way.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start an entirely new Writer document by *manually typing in* a first line of text. make sure that the text is set to be 'Justified'.
2. You get to around half-way of the new line of text then the justification steps in and the line of text starts jumping around length-wise. It seems that adding every space character causes the Justification to step on and resize the entire line of text.

Actual Results:
Explained above.

Expected Results:
I would expect that the justification wouldn't step onto operation in such a confusing way.


Reproducible: Always
