RC2 is bit by bit identical with release version, so separate items in the version picker are useless. Changes have been discussed with Michael Meeks.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1

Dear bug submitter!

Due to the fact, that there are a lot of NEEDINFO bugs with no answer within the last six months, we close all of these bugs.

Comment 7 sasha.libreoffice 2012-09-12 12:36:38 UTC
Reproduced in 3.6.1 on Fedora 64 bit

Steps to reproduce:
0. Open attachment
1. Select arrow in text and press Ctrl-C
2. Place text cursor inside of Thai word and press Ctrl-V
Expected: arrow inserted and distance between lines of text will not change
Actually: arrow inserted and distance between lines *decreases* and this changing of distance is not undoable.

Not reproduced in 3.3.4, therefore Regression
Comment 8 Julien Nabet 2012-10-27 15:22:33 UTC
On pc Debian x86-64 with 3.6 sources updated today, I don't reproduce the problem (I followed comment7's Sasha). Perhaps I missed something.
Could anybody give a try to 3.6.2 (or prerelease 3.6.3)?
Comment 9 sasha.libreoffice 2012-10-29 06:21:29 UTC
reproduced in 3.5.7 (from Fedora repo) and 3.6.2 (rpm from libreoffice.org) on RFR 17 64 bit

but not reproduced in 3.6.2 on Windows XP 32 bit
Comment 10 Michael Stahl (allotropia) 2012-12-18 17:58:21 UTC
so... the problem that i can see here is that after loading the
attached document, any change to a line that includes Thai
characters causes the inter-line spacing above the line to shrink.

the Undo does not restore the document view to how it looked before.

it's not even necessary to edit the text; changing the zoom level
also causes the gaps to shrink (all at once).

this is happening here in any LO/OOo release from OOo 3.3 onwards,
did not happen in OOo 3.2.1.

so i'm guessing that the layout after the file is imported is
not complete (i.e. document is displayed wrongly right after import)
and any tweak causes it to reach a more stable state.
Comment 11 Michael Stahl (allotropia) 2012-12-19 20:15:40 UTC
so the mysterious VCL font cache will return a font with
maSearchName = "waree" and mnLineHeight 3592 for this one:

p *rFont.mpImplFont
$2 = {
  mnRefCount = 5, 
  maFamilyName = "TH SarabunPSK", 
  maStyleName = "", 
  maSize = Size = {
    width = 0,
    height = 360
  }, 
  maColor = rgba(255, 255, 255, 255), 
  maFillColor = rgba(255, 255, 255, 255), 
  meCharSet = 76, 
  meLanguage = 1054, 
  meCJKLanguage = 2052, 
  meFamily = FAMILY_SWISS, 
  mePitch = PITCH_VARIABLE, 
  meAlign = ALIGN_BASELINE, 
  meWeight = WEIGHT_NORMAL, 
  meWidthType = WIDTH_DONTKNOW, 
  meItalic = ITALIC_NONE, 
  meUnderline = UNDERLINE_NONE, 
  meOverline = UNDERLINE_NONE, 
  meStrikeout = STRIKEOUT_NONE, 
  meRelief = RELIEF_NONE, 
  meEmphasisMark = 0, 
  mnOrientation = 0, 
  mnKerning = 1 '\001', 
  mbWordLine = 0 '\000', 
  mbOutline = 0 '\000', 
  mbConfigLookup = 0 '\000', 
  mbShadow = 0 '\000', 
  mbVertical = 0 '\000', 
  mbTransparent = 1 '\001'
}

but with the following parameter it returns maSearchName = "dejavusans" and mnLineHeight 2514:

p *rFont.mpImplFont
$5 = {
  mnRefCount = 5, 
  maFamilyName = "TH SarabunPSK", 
  maStyleName = "", 
  maSize = Size = {
    width = 0,
    height = 360
  }, 
  maColor = rgba(255, 255, 255, 255), 
  maFillColor = rgba(255, 255, 255, 255), 
  meCharSet = 76, 
  meLanguage = 1033, 
  meCJKLanguage = 2052, 
  meFamily = FAMILY_SWISS, 
  mePitch = PITCH_VARIABLE, 
  meAlign = ALIGN_BASELINE, 
  meWeight = WEIGHT_NORMAL, 
  meWidthType = WIDTH_DONTKNOW, 
  meItalic = ITALIC_NONE, 
  meUnderline = UNDERLINE_NONE, 
  meOverline = UNDERLINE_NONE, 
  meStrikeout = STRIKEOUT_NONE, 
  meRelief = RELIEF_NONE, 
  meEmphasisMark = 0, 
  mnOrientation = 0, 
  mnKerning = 1 '\001', 
  mbWordLine = 0 '\000', 
  mbOutline = 0 '\000', 
  mbConfigLookup = 0 '\000', 
  mbShadow = 0 '\000', 
  mbVertical = 0 '\000', 
  mbTransparent = 1 '\001'
}

... where the only difference appears to be meLanguage?

the different mnLineHeight ultimately causes the different formatting...
