Description Gordo 2015-06-17 15:46:44 UTC
1. New Text Document.
2. Enter three empty paragraphs so there are four in total and place cursor in last paragraph.
3. From toolbar, select Rectangle from Basic Shapes and draw it so that it is at or below the current paragraph.
4. With the shape selected, right click → Position and Size.
Expected Result:
The Vertical From Top to Margin will show a value that is relative from the top margin.
Actual Result:
The Vertical From Top to Margin shows a value that is relative from the paragraph (text) area and not the margin.  Selecting Margin or Paragraph text area is the same.

The same is true for frames and text boxes.

Page text area could be used but only if there is no border spacing to contents on the page.

I believe this is NAB.  That is, the actual behavior is correct.  Expected behavior in OP is based on a misinterpretation of "Margin".  cc: Mike Kaganski

So this is a dupe of bug 149252.
