Description jlbraga 2015-03-26 22:04:24 UTC
Here's something cool you could do...

As you know, it is possible to write letters in uppercase and lowercase. But they get smaller, like when someone writes mathematical or chemical formulas.
What I suggest is to add a new function that permits to write the words in the normal size, but as they were not on top of a line, but below a line, and/or even in the center of a line.
Adding a function like that would be cool to make stylish titles, for example...

I'm not quite sure exactly what this word/text styling would look like. Can you draw a picture/make a mockup in a graphics program like Draw and then upload it to this bug?

Not sure of the application of this, so lets see what the ux-advise team think.

Hi!

Like I said, the use of this is mainly to make cool titles  for covers, chapter headers, etc.

From looking at attachment 114448 [details] again, this can be achieved in the Position tab of the Character dialog by setting 'Relative font size' to 100% and adjusting 'raise/lower by'.

I think, you are looking for text-to-text alignment in the paragraph style. I have attached it as pdf to make sure the fonts are correct. The original document will follow.
