Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 20535
frame does not expand section
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
This is a follow up issue to issue 19853. Open attached document -> the frame (containing the larger table; has optimal wrap) does not fill the left column. Thus the second table is partially hidden behind this frame.
Created attachment 9860 [details] Document containing section and frame
Target 2.0.
OD (02.10.2003): First of all, a frame, which is anchored inside a section doesn't have to expand the section - it can overlap and/or exceed the section bottom. Then, the small table doesn't wrap around the frame, containing the large table, because a table wraps around a frame, if frame has the wrapping: - 'None', or - 'Before', or - 'After', or - 'Parallel' with position 'left'/'right'. But, that's not all. The algorithm, which balance a columned section, doesn't consider correctly objects, which are anchored inside the section and overlaps the section, such that a complete column width is taken. Due to the fact that this issue is a follow-up of issue #19853 and MS Word doesn't behave consistent in the 'expansion of the section', we have to decide, what do. The mentioned inconsistence can be reproduced by moving the large table to different positions - sometimes the section expands, sometimes not. OD->MRU: Let's have a closer look together and discuss possible solutions.
MRU->BH: I think, we need a new compatibility option for the two different behaviours regarding (non-) expanding sections.
Hello Frank, I think we should try to find a conclusion about that irritating current behaviour. Could you please take the ownership of this issue? Thank you.
Changed target due to effort.
OD->FL: Checkout SRC680m50 - document looks good to me.
Change issue type to enhancement.
