Created attachment 100351 [details] 2 sets of 3 strings having mixed English and Hebrew, starting with LTR or RTL character or mark in LTR or RTL paragraph. Unlike the correct RTL layout in Writer, the layout of RTL in Impress when the paragraph is RTL is wrong and depend of the first character of the paragraph. Specifically, the location of spaces and punctuation in the text is wrong. Steps to reproduce: 1. Enter Impress and click on the RTL paragraph button. 2. Write some mixed RTL and LTR text and punctuation starting once with a RTL mark and a second time with a LTR mark. 3. Observe the layout being different depending of the type of mark, which is wrong. Current behavior: The type (LTR or RTL) of the first character in the paragraph should not influence on the text formatting in a RTL paragraph, the same way is does not influence it in a LTR paragraph. Expected behavior: Identical for the formatting of the same text in Writer, which layouts RTL paragraphs just fine. Operating System: Ubuntu Version: 4.2.4.2 release
Created attachment 100352 [details] Correct formatting of the same text in Writer This file contains the exact same text as the one in the Impress file, showing a correct layout of text in RTL paragraph. It can be used as a reference for correct behavior.
Comment on attachment 100351 [details] 2 sets of 3 strings having mixed English and Hebrew, starting with LTR or RTL character or mark in LTR or RTL paragraph. This is an example of wrong RTL paragraph layout in Impress. The lines having a wrong layout are highlighted with purple text. The correct layout is show in the Writer attachment, where the corresponding line have a yellow background.
For me, using Win 7 64-bit 4.3.3.2, the Writer and Impress "highlighted lines" look equally fine. As this seems nuanced, I am hesitant to close as WORKSFORME, so I am requesting a retest with 4.3.x. Files won't open with 4.4 alpha, will file a new bug about that.
Hello Gil Shwartz, Thank you for submitting the bug. I can confirm that the bug is available in master on Linux. Version: 4.4.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 3efc3cc5b0b4b6151e928c2348c7dc6f74181db5 TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86@45-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2014-10-29_01:36:59
Created attachment 108746 [details] ODT vs ODP I've highlighted in red, the areas where there is difference between the odt and odp.
(In reply to Jay Philips from comment #5) > Created attachment 108746 [details] > ODT vs ODP > > I've highlighted in red, the areas where there is difference between the odt > and odp. Jay, thanks for the screenie. I can confirm that on Windows those problems you highlighted are not present, so maybe this is Linux-only.
For those interested, an interim workaround for this bug is to force the first character of the lines with the wrong ODP formatting to be a RTL Mark (Insert -> Formatting Mark -> Right-to-left mark).
The error with the middle line in the third block still present in 4.4 master.
Argh, my eyes must have been crossed yesterday night.. I noticed I did have one single error using 4.3.3.2 in the last highlighted line: ".abc" instead of ."abc". Yet, I didn't have the " LTR - error as in Jay's screenshot.
