Screenshot presenting the bug

Option "Fit text to contour" in Impress causes text to appear somewhere else. In old presentations text disappears completely - this is why I've  assigned "critical" attribute. In freshly edited text boxes text appears outside the shape!
This bug is not only annoying but compromising as well.

In all cases, with the exception of v4.1 (refer attached) the rendering is problematic. Under v4.1 the rendering is as expected.

This issue is possibly related to one of the numerous Draw rotation bugs. As per comment 1, confirmed. Status set to NEW. Summary amended for clarity. Version set to 4.2.6.3. Platform to All/All. Severity to normal per the QA flowchart:

(In reply to comment #4)
> Under v4.1 the rendering is as expected.

This statement may not be accurate, as the text is not rotated as in the original. I initially overlooked this and am not clear as to how rotated text should be rendered when wrapped inside a custom shape of the indicated nature. Attachment description amended to be clearer.

Hi Owen,
I was trying to insert text in HORIZONTAL orientation, but this bug
causes it to rotate to VERTICAL and places outside the contour.

Greets,
J.

Comment 10 Regina Henschel 2017-11-01 21:56:13 UTC
Changed subject, because "Adjust to contour" is not available for custom shapes, but only for polygons, bézier curves and legacy rectangle and circles.

For legacy rectangles and circles the text position is correct, but not for polygons and bézier curves. I see the error in Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha1+

Currently the fit-to-contour feature is totally broken, see bug 152906.
