When looking at the screenshots of bug 36999, I realized that LibreOffice 3.6 uses the wrong paragraph spacing in a text box. The following is about the text in the box on the bottom right of the screenshots. With paragraph before=auto, after=auto, Microsoft Office 2010/Windows shows the following: attachment 65551 [details] Namely, there is an empty line between the paragraphs. However, result of LibreOffice is attachment 65607 [details] Namely, there is no spacing after the paragraph. Test case: https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=394228 From ECMA-376 3rd edition Part 1: "17.3.1.33 spacing (Spacing Between Lines and Above/Below Paragraph)" "afterAutospacing (Automatically Determine Spacing Below Paragraph)" [...] "This automatic spacing shall match the spacing which would be applied to the paragraph in an HTML document where no explicit spacing before/after is specified." That's of cause "well defined" as a view at the HTML 4.01 standard shows: http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/struct/text.html#h-9.3.1 However, most graphical HTML browsers seem to use a spacing which is (roughly?) as high as one line of the rendered text.
Hm I'm trying to understand what the focus is here. Is the focus the fact that there is the extra frames that are seen in the png's that is circled in the thick red? Or are we looking for something else. Thanks for your patience on this, for now marking as NEEDINFO - just want to clarify what exactly I'm looking for. I can confirm the extra frame seen in the red circle on 4.2 master but I think the summary is telling me to look at something else :) If it's line spacing, where exactly am I looking? Another image with highlighted pen would be nice but if not, just tell me where to look. Once you provide a bit of clarification, mark as UNCONFIRMED and I'll get to it. Thanks!

No, that's bug 36999. > If it's line spacing, where exactly am I looking? Another image with > highlighted pen would be nice but if not, just tell me where to look. Look at the box at the bottom right: +---------------------------------- | Benchmark by Therma-Tru ... | Smooth Fiber ... | <<<<<<<<< Missing empty line | Item #228... | <<<<<<<<< Missing empty line | ***** (1 Review) | <<<<<<<<< Missing empty line | $183.00 +---------------------------------- In MS Office, there is the empty line (attachment 65551 [details]) In LO there is *no* empty line (attachment 65607 [details]) Test case: https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=394228 See comment 0 why there has to be an empty line.
Hi Tobias, Joel, *, I can confirm mentioned behavior of Tobias with provided test document and attachment. Tested and compared with Mac OSX 10.8.3 with LibreOffice 4.1.0.1 RC and Word for Mac 2011. LibreOffice indeeds lacks vertical space between the text and the blue 'stars'. Thanks Tobias for your nice bug report and reply to Joel' questions. Kind regards, Joren
