Text in Writer can have settings for Position, via Format > Character. When done if e.g. the frame for the style Title is selected, the settings become part of the style. However, opening window with setting for any style, does not offer the tab Position.. Has always been this way - as far as I can remember
(In reply to comment #0) > Text in Writer can have must be text in IMPRESS .. obviously
If I'm not mistaken, this is solved by 91932 :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 91932 ***

Created attachment 152262 [details] PDF with three dialogs, showing what is missing
Don't see a reason why this properties shouldn't be accessible at this dialog.

No. In Draw/Impress: The 'Character' dialog offers four pannels Font - Font Effects - Position - Highlighting The composition of style panel(s) Title, Subtitle (Master mode or Normal) picks up just three Font - Font Effects - Highlighting So where are the controls held in the Position tab for working with Drawing/Slide style for Text box graphics? Lack of Rotation is obvious, we define a Vertical Text box graphic object for that. And otherwise we rotate the graphic frame itself--not the text. But, where to set/indicate Superscript/Subscript, or scaling of H-font width, or adjustment of kerning? Seems like the Position tab is needed. Or, are those settings _not_ recorded into style (and setting each from Character dialog is always direct formatting)?
(In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #13) > into style (and setting each from Character dialog is always direct > formatting)? - Create a text box, set e.g. Width scaling 200% - create new style with that box selected - apply to another text box > width scaling applied
@heiko: should it be hard to fix this?
This would apply it to the entire paragraph, wouldn't it? Is there much point in setting an entire paragraph to superscript?
(In reply to Justin L from comment #16) > Is there much point in setting an entire paragraph to superscript? Oh - missed the example of width scaling as the desired setting. Sorry.
(In reply to Cor Nouws from comment #15) > @heiko: should it be hard to fix this? Define "hard". The UI might not be such a big deal but it also needs to be in the edit engine. For example I don't see how to rotate a paragraph by 90° in Impress. Copy/paste from Writer always inserts an OLE object, wouldn't you expect styled text with full compatibility? Why do we need the Position attributes at all?
(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #18) Add a shape type Apple Pie choose Format > Character set font scaling to 200% on tab Position create new style from that shape > font position is part of the new style select style in side bar choose Modify > font position is not there It should be there.
(In reply to Cor Nouws from comment #19) > It should be there. /signed
I thought adding this just might, possibly be easy. But it isn't (unless perhaps you already know the magic tricks of the UI.) I'm guessing the answers lie partially in sd/source/ui/dlg/tabtempl.cxx and sd/uiconfig/simpress/ui/templatedialog.ui
*** Bug 142751 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The Format > Styles > Edit Style command (or using the context menu in the Stylist at the sidebar) deals with the paragraph style, ie. Title, Subtitle etc. We do not yet have access to character style in Impress. But it is requested in bug 40871... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 40871 ***

This is not about Character Styles. It is about the position of characters in a paragraph (scaling, spacing).
(In reply to Cor Nouws from comment #25) > This is not about Character Styles. It is about the position of characters > in a paragraph (scaling, spacing). I have - mistakenly - assumed that this can be seen as just a symptom of not having proper character styles. If text in Impress had character styles, that would mean, in particular, that it had scaling and spacing properties which we could control using Format | Character - which would become a full-fledged Character Style editing dialog. Cor, how would you mark bug 128810? Related? Perhaps blocking?
(In reply to Eyal Rozenberg from comment #26) > Cor, how would you mark bug 128810? Related? Perhaps blocking? None of those, Eyal. Setting e.g. font scaling for a outline style, can be done independent from the (non)existence of character styles.
(In reply to Cor Nouws from comment #27) > Setting e.g. font scaling for a outline style, can be done independent from > the (non)existence of character styles. Well, that's true... so resolving this bug won't resolve that one, but in the other direction it probably would. Still, leave things this way for now.
