reassigned to BH. Putting Draw objects into a Writer document is a suboptimal solution and has possibly undesireable implications for flow and layout in some cases, in addition to the obvious UI considerations. Long-term, it would be very nice to have UI for this in Writer. Ideally, it would also be nice to be able to change the depth/position of the shadow on text, like you can do on frames and tables and so on -- FontWorks does that too (well, position), but there's no UI for it in Writer, and if implemented it logically would belong in the same place as the UI for shadow color. That could be considered beyond the scope of this bug and separate, though. This DESIGN DEFECT (is is not an "enhancement") still exists in 2.3.1, it must be addressed. Looks like a duplicate of Issue 47519 (Feature) This has been a design DEFECT (not a feature enhancement) since before 2004. There have been multiple reports of this and similarly related design deficiency: 32257, 34516, 36144 (this report), 37147, 47519, 51710. There should be a single UI across all OOo applications controlling all font attributes including the control of the font shadow (color, depth, angle). duplicate *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 47519 *** Closed Is is NOT resolved. It is NOT a duplicate of 47519. It is NOT about draw objects. 47519 is about Impress, this DEFECT is about the control of font shadows in Write. You keep missing the point. Font attributes have no ability to exert ANY control over the font shadow color. If the font color is set to "automatic" the shadow is black. If the font color is set to any other color, the shadow color is set to gray. There should be a single UI across all OOo applications controlling all font attributes including the control of the font shadow (color, depth, angle). Changed the owner to 'requirements'. Reset assignee on issues not touched by assignee in more than 1000 days. |
